Question:

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

EXTENSIVE

Options:

Limited

Lengthy

Intricate

Elaborate

Correct Answer:

Limited

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 1. Limited

"Extensive" typically means covering a large area or having a wide range or scope.

The antonym we're looking for should describe the opposite characteristic, which would be something that is confined, restricted, or narrow in range or scope.

"Limited" fits this description perfectly. It means restricted in size, amount, or extent, contrasting with "extensive," which implies a wide range or scope.

Therefore, "limited" is the appropriate antonym for "extensive" because it represents the opposite characteristic—confined or restricted instead of covering a large area or having a wide range.
