Answer:

WAIT

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that the processor server puts the process in a WAIT state. In other words it temporarily pauses the server from taking any action until the message from the service request comes back with a response. Once that happens it receives new instructions and is resumed.
