Answer:

Duma could mean <u>a representative council that makes decisions and judgements about laws</u>.

Explanation:

Considering the origin of the words, let's first look at the word "doom". "Doom" is originated from the Russian word "dom" which is old English. Similarly, the Russian word "duma" also originates from the same Old English word.

Now, with the word "duma" similar in origin to the English word "doom", it can be taken or inferred that the word will also have some similarity to the idea of a judgment or any form of power play.

Therefore, the word "Duma" means 'a representative council that decides and makes a judgment about laws.

Thus, the <u>correct answer is the second option</u>.
