Select the most appropriate antonym of the given word. Impervious
Permeable
IMPERVIOUS means not allowing fluid (or anything) to pass through; figuratively, not affected or influenced by something. Example: an impervious layer of clay.
The opposite is Permeable — allowing liquids or gases to pass through.
Impregnable (unable to be captured or broken into) and Durable (long-lasting) are close in sense to impervious, and Impassive (showing no emotion) is related to its figurative meaning — none of them is opposite.
Hence, the answer is Permeable.
