Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
In English: The word Integrate means to combine or bring together parts into a whole . Its opposite (antonym) is Separate , which means to divide or keep apart . Hence, the correct antonym is Separate. "Abuse" means to mistreat or misuse; it is unrelated to the meaning of "integrate".
"Assimilate" means to absorb or adopt and is similar in meaning to "integrate," not its opposite.
"Combine" means to join together and is a synonym of "integrate," not an antonym.
