[amp_mcq option1=”profligate” option2=”married” option3=”extravagant” option4=”prodigal” correct=”option2″]
The correct answer is B. married.
A celibate is a person who abstains from sexual activity, especially for religious reasons. A married person is someone who is legally or formally bound to another person as a spouse.
An extravagant person spends money or uses resources carelessly or wastefully. A prodigal person is someone who spends money or resources recklessly or wastefully.
Both extravagant and prodigal people are wasteful with their money or resources, but they are not necessarily celibate. In fact, some extravagant and prodigal people are married.
Therefore, the only option that is an antonym of celibate is B. married.
