Which definition best matches the word abundance?

• A. A quantity that is considered to be more than enough
• B. An extremely large quantity of something
• C. A moderate amount
• D. A scarce resource

Answer: (B)

Abundance means a very large quantity or plentiful supply. The best match is “an extremely large quantity of something” because abundance conveys plenty beyond what is needed. A moderate amount isn’t enough to express abundance, and a scarce resource is the opposite. While “more than enough” also suggests surplus, the strongest, most precise sense of abundance is a very large quantity.
