Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Correct answer: outward
'Ingressive' means going or directed inward; it is a synonym of entering.
Therefore, the antonym is 'outward', which means moving or directed away from the inside or center.
Why 'outward' is correct: It denotes movement away from the inside or center, the direct opposite of inward movement.
Why 'entering' is incorrect: It is a synonym of ingressive (both mean directed inward), so it cannot be the antonym.
Why 'pouring' is incorrect: It refers to liquid flow and is unrelated to the inward/outward directional meaning.
Why 'courageous' is incorrect: It describes bravery and is semantically unrelated to direction.
