I believe the answer is:

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this clue is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">dormant</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that dormant can be written as torpid)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">passive</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(thesaurus)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for torpid that I've seen before include "Inert" , "Slow, dull" , "Sluggish and inactive" , "Lethargic - drop it (anag)" , "Physically inactive" .)
