keywords: 

{'silent zone': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'noise': [0, 1, 3, 1], 'permissible level': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'daytime': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

The correct answer is option 1: 50 dB.

In a silent zone during the daytime, the permissible level of noise should not exceed 50 dB.

Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB) and are used to quantify sound intensity. The higher the dB level, the louder the sound.

A silent zone is a designated area where excessive noise levels are prohibited to maintain tranquility and reduce disturbance. These areas are typically found in residential areas, near hospitals, or educational institutions, where a peaceful environment is crucial.

Option 2, 60 dB, exceeds the permissible noise level for a silent zone during the daytime. Option 3, 65 dB, and option 4, 75 dB, also exceed the permissible noise levels.

It is important to adhere to and respect the permissible noise levels in silent zones to ensure a peaceful coexistence in these areas.
