Respond
Explanation
The word “interrogate” means to question someone closely or formally, especially to obtain information. Its opposite is “respond,” which means to answer questions or reply. Therefore, Option 1 is the correct antonym.
The other options are incorrect. Option 2 (“Question”) has a meaning similar to “interrogate.” Option 3 (“Examine”) means to inspect or investigate closely. Option 4 (“Investigate”) means to inquire into or examine systematically. These are related to interrogation, not its opposite.
