From the given options, select the one that carried the same relation as:
Subsequent : Prior
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Durable : Fragile
Given pair: Subsequent : Prior → opposites (antonyms) (subsequent means coming after something, and prior means coming before it)
| Pair | Relationship |
|---|---|
| (1) Durable : Fragile (answer) | opposites, the same relation as Subsequent : Prior (durable means strong and able to last a long time, while fragile means easily broken or damaged) |
| (2) Pristine : Unspoiled | synonyms, not opposites (pristine means fresh, clean and in its original condition, which is what unspoiled means) |
| (3) Remittance : Payment | near synonyms (a remittance is a sum of money sent as payment) |
| (4) Rekindle : Reawaken | synonyms (to rekindle is to bring a feeling or interest back to life, the same as to reawaken) |
