Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Answer: married

Celibate means abstaining from marriage or sexual relations, often for religious or personal reasons.

Therefore the opposite in meaning (antonym) is married.

  • reprobate — an unprincipled or morally condemned person; unrelated to marital status.

  • profligate — recklessly wasteful or morally licentious; not the opposite of celibate.

  • prodigal — wastefully extravagant; also not related to marital status.
