Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Answer: Sophisticated is the opposite of crude.
Definitions: "Crude" means raw, unrefined, or lacking polish; "sophisticated" means refined, cultured, or highly developed.
Sophisticated: the correct antonym of crude because it denotes refinement and polish.
Antagonized: means made hostile or provoked; unrelated to being refined or unrefined.
Asymmetric: describes lack of symmetry or balance; not an antonym of crude.
Boorish: means rude or coarse, which is similar in sense to crude rather than opposite.
