RRB NTPC 2019 CBT 1 Question Paper (8-Mar-2021) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
opaque

Understanding the Analogy

The question asks to identify the relationship between 'Light' and 'Darkness' and apply it to 'Transparent' and find its corresponding word.

Analyzing the Relationship

The pair 'Light' and 'Darkness' represents a relationship of opposites (antonyms). Darkness is the absence of light.

Applying the Relationship to 'Transparent'

We need to find the word that represents the opposite of 'Transparent' concerning the passage of light.

  • Transparent: Allows light to pass through entirely, enabling clear visibility of objects on the other side.
  • Opaque: Does not allow light to pass through; light is either absorbed or reflected. This is the direct opposite of transparent.
  • Translucent: Allows some light to pass through but scatters it, resulting in unclear visibility.
  • Glass: Often transparent, but not the defining opposite term itself.
  • Paper: Can be translucent or opaque, depending on its type.

Conclusion

Since 'Darkness' is the opposite of 'Light', the opposite of 'Transparent' is 'Opaque'.

Therefore, 'Transparent' is related to 'Opaque'.
