Question:

Select the most appropriate antonym of the word.

CONSENSUS

Options:

Disagreement

Agreement

Consent

Harmony

Correct Answer:

Disagreement

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word consensus is disagreement.

  • Consensus means "general agreement."
  • Disagreement means "lack of agreement."

The other words do not have the same meaning as consensus, so they are not its antonyms.

  • Agreement means "the act of agreeing."
  • Consent means "permission or approval."
  • Harmony means "a state of agreement or concord."

Therefore, the most appropriate antonym of consensus is disagreement.
