Answer: "a bond that requires a great amount of energy to break apart."

Explanation: A triple bond is stronger and shorter than single or double bonds, so it has a higher bond energy (higher bond dissociation energy) and requires more energy to break. Note: although stronger bonds require more input energy to break, they correspond to a lower (more negative) potential energy for the bonded state compared with separated atoms.
