Correct Answer: responsible


Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.

It means having an obligation to do something or being accountable for one's actions. This word, as an adjective, fits well in the context of the sentence. It conveys the idea that every minister has a duty or accountability to the Parliament.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Responsive means reacting quickly and positively to something.

  • Response refers to a reaction or reply to something.

  • Responsibility means the state or fact of having a duty to deal with something or the task of taking care of something.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: Every minister is responsible to the Parliament.
