Correct Answer: Meagre


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Abundant means having plenty or more than enough of something. The antonym should convey the idea of scarcity or insufficiency, which is represented by the word meagre. Meagre means lacking in quantity or quality, inadequate, or sparse.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Unconscious: It relates to a lack of awareness or being in a state of unconsciousness.

  • Indefinite refers to something not clearly defined, rather than representing scarcity.

  • Unreliable means not being able to be relied on or trusted.

Therefore, the correct antonym is meagre .
