In the below-given questions, choose the word which gives the opposite meaning…

Key idea: "Hirsute" means hairy or covered with hair.

Correct answer: Bald — "bald" means lacking hair, so it is the direct antonym of "hirsute."

• Hairy: synonym of hirsute, not an opposite.

• Fluffy: describes texture (soft/light), unrelated to hair presence or absence.

• Dirty: concerns cleanliness, not hairiness, so it is unrelated.

Therefore, "bald" is the best choice because it directly expresses the absence of hair.
