Answer:

The word that means "able to be taken under, or not resistant" is "susceptible".

Explanation:

Susceptible is an adjective that refers to someone who is likely to be harmed or influenced by something, that is, who is liable to be taken under, dominated without much resistance. In letter C, the sentence "Her allergies made her susceptible to asthma attacks" speaks of a person who is likely to have asthma attacks, who is liable to being affected by that specific problem, due to allergies. In other words, due to allergies, this person is able to be taken under by a health condition.

Another example with "susceptible" would be:

- Their trust in their king made them susceptible to his lies.

In this case, for trusting their king, people were liable to being lied to and harmed by it.

Why were supernatural elements in a play more freighting for audiences during Shakespeare time?

schepotkina [342]

During Shakeaspeare time, people actually believed in witches and demons. They were extremely superstitious, and mystical/supernatural beliefs affected their everyday lives. If someone was ill, it was not uncommon to believe that person was cursed, for example. So seeing the supernatural being represented on a stage was especially frightening, which is also why magic and the supernatural are a recurring theme in Shakespeare plays.
