Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Answer: Perpetual
Explanation: "Transient" means lasting only a short time or temporary. "Perpetual" means continuous or lasting indefinitely. Because one denotes short duration and the other denotes continued or never-ending duration, they are antonyms.
Transient: lasting for a short time; temporary.
Perpetual: continuing without interruption; lasting indefinitely.
Why the other choices are incorrect:
Stiff: relates to rigidity or inflexibility, not duration.
Meaningless: relates to lack of sense or value, not to how long something lasts.
Noble: describes high moral qualities or social rank, not temporariness.
