This question was previously asked in
UPTET 2026 Paper 2 Social Studies Question Paper (3-Jul-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Adjective

The word 'beautiful' describes the noun 'flower' by telling us what quality it has.

A word that qualifies or describes a noun is called an adjective.

It is not an interjection since it does not express sudden emotion, not a verb since it shows no action, and not a preposition since it does not relate the noun to another word in the sentence.

Therefore, 'beautiful' functions here as an adjective.
