Correct Answer: Extraneous


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option .

The term intrinsic refers to the inherent or essential nature of something, suggesting qualities that are fundamental and inherent to its existence. On the other hand, extraneous means unrelated, unnecessary, or coming from the outside.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Impertinent means rude, disrespectful, or irrelevant.

  • Genuine means authentic, real, or true, having qualities that are not fake or artificial.

  • Unrelated means not connected or associated.

Therefore, the correct answer is extraneous.
