Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. annihilate.

The synonym for "vitiate" is "annihilate" because both terms involve a sense of destruction or impairment.

"Vitiate" means to impair or spoil the quality or effectiveness of something, while "annihilate" refers to completely destroying or rendering something ineffective, which aligns with the idea of significant impairment or degradation.
