Correct Answer: Extraneous

Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

Extraneous means not forming a necessary part of something or unrelated or irrelevant to the subject being dealt with, which contrasts with inherent, meaning existing as a natural or essential characteristic.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

• Natural is something existing in or derived from nature; it is not made or caused by humankind.
• Induce means to bring about or give rise to something, usually through persuasion, influence, or stimulation.
• Restricted means something that is limited or confined in terms of scope, extent, or access; not freely available or allowed beyond certain boundaries or limitations.
