Correct Answer: Respectful


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

Irreverent is an adjective that describes a lack of respect, especially for things that are generally taken seriously or considered sacred. The antonym, therefore, should convey a sense of showing respect. Respectful is a suitable choice, as it means showing regard and consideration for others.

Therefore, the correct antonym is respectful .

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Restoration: This term refers to the action of returning something to a former or original condition.

  • Dormant: This term means inactive or in a state of rest.

  • Relevant: This term means closely connected to or appropriate to the matter at hand.
