Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Correct answer: agitated
Explanation:
The word "tranquil" means calm, peaceful, and free from disturbance.
"Agitated" means disturbed, upset, or restless, which is the opposite of being calm or tranquil.
"Rough" refers to texture or unevenness and is not an emotional antonym of tranquil.
"Violent" suggests physical aggression or force rather than the emotional state opposite to calm.
"Peaceful" is a synonym of tranquil and therefore not an antonym.
