Answer:

Somnus

Step-by-step explanation:

Soporific comes from Latin sopor, which means "deep sleep." That root is related to somnus, the Latin word for "sleep." Despite its meaning, somnus has been active, giving English somnolence (sleepiness), somnambulism (sleepwalking), and many other "sleepy" words.

Dormant comes from the same roots as the French verb "dormir" which means sleep, so since we didn't have answer choices i just gave you one.
