Show Solution

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
The verb "given" tightly restricts what can follow it; we need a noun that is naturally something a person or body "gives" to allow an action, here a survey, to happen.

Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
Test each option in the exact frame "give our ___ to conduct the survey" and check if it is a phrase native speakers actually use.

Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
"Give our projection" does not make sense here since a projection is a forecast, not permission.
"Give our request" is backwards; a request is something one makes to ask for permission, not something one gives to grant it.
"Give our compliance" is not idiomatic; compliance describes obeying a rule, and one "shows" or "ensures" compliance, but does not "give" it in this sense.
"Give our consent" is the standard idiom for formally agreeing to let something proceed, exactly what is needed before a survey can be conducted.

Step 4: Final Answer:
"Consent" is the right word, making option (2) correct.
