Procrastination

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Suspension.

Procrastination means delaying or postponing something — putting off action until later. It is closely related to the idea of a temporary suspension of doing something.

Why the other options are incorrect:

1. Limitation → means restriction, not delay.

2. Resumption → means starting again after a pause, which is the opposite of procrastination.

4. Action → means doing something immediately, which is the opposite of delaying.
