Which word in the given sentence is the ANTONYM of - susceptible?
The president claimed he was immune from prosecution.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The word susceptible means "capable of being affected or influenced by something." The antonym of susceptible is immune.
In the sentence, "The president claimed he was immune from prosecution," the word immune is the antonym of susceptible because it means "not capable of being affected or influenced by something."
The other words in the sentence do not have the same meaning as susceptible, so they are not its antonyms.
- Claimed means "stated as a fact or belief."
- President is the title of the head of state of a country.
- Prosecution is the process of bringing someone to trial for a crime.
