Give rise to; persuade (6)
I believe the answer is:
induce
This clue is a double definition.
'give rise to' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'persuade' is the second definition.
(I know this)
(Other definitions for induce that I've seen before include "Persuade or bring on, say birth" , "Bring on, cause to happen" , "Bring on by artificial means" , "Persuade, hasten childbirth" , "Give rise to" .)
