Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. trivial.
"Crucial" means extremely important or decisive in the outcome of something.
"Trivial" means of little value or importance; insignificant.
In the context given, the sentence suggests that the tension will play a critical role in determining the fate of the company, emphasizing its importance.
Therefore, "trivial," which means the opposite of crucial is the appropriate antonym here.
