Correct Answer: relinquished


Solution : The correct option is the third option.

It means to give up or surrender something, often a position or responsibility. In the context of the sentence, "relinquished" is the correct word because it means that the father willingly gave up the throne for his son.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

Reverted: It means to return to a previous state or condition.

Relished: It means to enjoy or take great pleasure in something.

Revived: It means to bring something back to life or make it active again.

Therefore, the complete sentence is, "The father relinquished the throne for his son."
