The correct answer is option (B):
convealed
The word "manifest" means something that is clearly visible or obvious. Think of it as something that has been revealed and is easy to see or understand.
Now let's look at the options:
Obvious: This word is a synonym for manifest. If something is obvious, it is clearly visible and easy to understand, just like something manifest.
Convealed: This word is a misspelling of "concealed." To conceal something means to hide it or keep it from being seen. This is the opposite of manifest, which means to be revealed or obvious.
Transparent: This word means something is see-through, allowing light to pass through it so that objects behind can be seen. While transparency can imply something is obvious, "manifest" is more about being evident rather than physically see-through.
Showy: This word describes something that is ostentatious or designed to attract attention. While something showy might be obvious, it doesn't directly relate to the core meaning of "manifest" which is about being evident or revealed.
Therefore, "convealed" (concealed) is the correct answer because it is the antonym, or opposite, of "manifest." If something is manifest, it is not hidden or concealed.
