Answer
Correct Answer: Subpoena
Explanation
Introduction / Context:We match a person to the formal instrument that compels or authorizes their appearance. A visitor arrives by invitation; what compels a witness to appear?
Given Data / Assumptions:
- Visitors often receive invitations.
- Witnesses in legal proceedings are compelled by subpoenas.
Concept / Approach:Find the precise legal term paralleling “invitation.”
Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Identify instrument for witnesses → subpoena (court order).2) Thus, visitor:invitation :: witness:subpoena.Why Other Options Are Wrong:
- Permission: general consent, not a compulsion to appear.
- Assent: agreement/approval; wrong category.
- Document: too generic; many documents exist.
- None of these: incorrect because “Subpoena” fits.
Common Pitfalls:Choosing broad terms like “document” instead of the specific legal instrument.
Final Answer:Subpoena
