Question
Choose the correct antonym (word opposite in meaning) from the given choices of ‘Humidity’?AridityClamminessDanknessSteam
Solution
The correct antonym for 'Humidity' is 'Aridity'. This is because 'Humidity' refers to the amount of water vapor in the air, indicating a moist or damp condition. On the other hand, 'Aridity' refers to the lack of moisture or water vapor in the air, indicating a dry condition. Therefore, 'Aridity' is the opposite of 'Humidity'. The other options - 'Clamminess', 'Dankness', and 'Steam' - all indicate some level of moisture or humidity, so they are not antonyms of 'Humidity'.
