Question restatement: You’re asked to choose the correct part of speech for the academic word that fits in the sentence: Some students feel pressure to ______________ to what their friends are doing, even when it goes against their values.
Option 1: conform. This is a verb, which properly completes the sentence as 'to conform to what their friends are doing,' meaning to adapt or adjust one's behavior to match others. The infinitive form after 'to' makes sense here.
Option 2: conformity. This is a noun meaning the act of conforming or the state of being similar. It would not grammatically fit after 'to' as a verb would, since the sentence expects a verb form, not a noun.
Option 3: conformation. This is a noun referring to the shape or structure of something, often in a biological or physical sense. It does not match the meaning or grammatical need of the blank in this sentence.
Option 4: conformed. This is the past tense verb form, which would require an auxiliary or different construction (for example, 'to conformed' is not correct; the past tense would be used in 'they conformed to...'), and the sentence uses present tense 'feel pressure to', so the base form is more appropriate.
Option 5: conforms. This is the third-person singular present tense of the verb 'conform.' It would require a subject doing the conforming, but the structure 'feel pressure to' is followed by the base verb, not a conjugated form, so 'conforms' is incorrect here.
Overall, the best fit is 'conform' because after 'to' we use the base form of the verb to express purpose or intention, aligning with standard English grammar and the meaning of complying with others' behavior.
