Transcript text: Pervasive harassment happens when there are ongoing events that are not necessarily severe in nature but in frequency.
Solution
Answer
The answer is Pervasive
Explanation
Option 1: Annoyance
Annoyance refers to a feeling of irritation or discomfort, but it does not specifically describe the nature of harassment that occurs due to frequency rather than severity.
Option 2: Verbal
Verbal harassment involves the use of words to cause harm or discomfort. While it can be frequent, the term "verbal" does not specifically address the concept of frequency over severity.
Option 3: Pervasive
Pervasive harassment refers to behavior that is widespread or persistent, occurring frequently enough to create a hostile environment. This aligns with the description of harassment that is not necessarily severe in individual instances but is significant due to its ongoing nature.
Option 4: Severe
Severe harassment implies that the actions are intense or extreme in nature. This does not match the description of harassment that is characterized by frequency rather than severity.
