Correct Answer: Agitate


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Console means to comfort or provide solace to someone in distress or sadness.
Agitate means to disturb, upset, or provoke. The opposite of providing comfort in this scenario would be to agitate, which means to disturb or upset.

The meanings of the other options are:

  • Coordinate: It means organising or synchronising elements to work harmoniously.
  • Satiate: It means to satisfy fully or in excess.
  • Gratify: It denotes giving pleasure or satisfaction and fulfilling desires.

Therefore, the correct answer is agitate.
