Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. allied.
Affiliated means officially connected or associated with an organization. Allied is the synonym that best matches this meaning, as it implies a formal connection or association.
Other options:
Disparate means distinctly different or dissimilar.
Diverse refers to variety but doesn't imply formal association.
Unalike means not similar, which is unrelated to the meaning of "affiliated."
