Discussion
Direction : Choose the word which is the exact opposite of the given word.
QUIESCENT
Answer: A
The opposite of QUIESCENT is active.
Quiescent means in a state of inactivity or rest, quiet and still for the time being: a quiescent volcano, a quiescent disease. Its exact opposite is active.
'Dormant' is a near synonym of quiescent, not an opposite, and is the usual trap. 'Weak' describes lack of strength, not inactivity, and 'unconcerned' describes indifference, a state of mind rather than activity.
