answer explanation: 

<p>Our company operates in full <span class="ans" data-answer="c">compliance</span> with current environmental laws.</p>
<div class="explanation">
<p>The correct answer is <strong>(C) compliance</strong>.</p>
<p>In this sentence, the word "compliance" is used as a noun to describe the state of being in accordance with or conforming to the current environmental laws. The phrase "in full compliance" means that the company follows and adheres to these laws completely.</p>
<p>Option A (comply) is incorrect because it is a verb and does not fit grammatically in this sentence. The sentence requires a noun to describe the state of operating in accordance with the laws.</p>
<p>Option B (complying) is incorrect because it is a verb form and does not fit grammatically as a standalone word in this sentence. It could be used in a sentence like "Our company is currently complying with environmental laws."</p>
<p>Option D (compliances) is incorrect because it is the plural form of the noun "compliance" and does not fit grammatically in this sentence. The sentence requires the singular form to match with the phrase "in full."</p>
