Select the most appropriate synonym of the given word.
EVIDENCE

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1, i.e. indication.

  1. Indication is a sign or piece of information that indicates something.
  2. Refutation is the action of proving a statement or theory to be wrong or false.
  3. Denial is the action of denying something.
  4. Concealment is the action of hiding something or preventing it from being known.

Option 1 expresses a meaning that is similar to that of the meaning of 'evidence', which is information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid. Hence, 'indication' becomes the correct answer.
