Correct Answer: Alimony


Solution : The correct option is the second option.

Explanation:
Alimony refers to the financial support or allowance that a husband provides to his wife after a legal separation or divorce. It is specifically related to the financial assistance or support given by one spouse to another, especially when they're legally separated or divorced.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Allegory: It's a literary device where abstract ideas or principles are conveyed through characters, figures, or events that represent a deeper meaning.
  • Affidavit: It's a written, sworn statement or declaration, often used as evidence in legal settings.
  • Advocacy: This term refers to public support or recommendation for a particular cause, policy, or idea. It involves actively promoting or supporting a cause, group, or idea.

Therefore, the correct answer is alimony.
