What does consent mean in context of permission?

To grant permission To refuse To require To negotiate

Correct Answer:

To grant permission

Explanation:

Consent means giving permission, an active agreement to allow something to happen. When someone consents, they are granting permission. This fits the context of permission, as you’re saying yes to a proposed action. For example, a person consents to share their data or to undergo a procedure. The other ideas describe different actions: refusing denies permission, requiring demands it be done, and negotiating is about bargaining before agreeing. So consent is specifically about granting permission.
