Which word means 'clear and able to be seen'?

• A. Appendix
• B. Appreciate
• C. Apparent
• D. Approximate

Answer: (C)

This item tests understanding of a word that means something can be seen clearly or is obvious. Apparent is the one that fits this sense: it describes something that is clearly visible or easy to understand from what is presented. It’s used when the evidence or appearance makes it plain, even if there might be more beneath the surface. For example, you might say a problem is apparent after a quick inspection, meaning you can see it right away. The other words don’t capture visibility: appendix refers to an added part at the end of a book or a body part, appreciate means to value or understand, and approximate means near or not exact. So the best choice for “clear and able to be seen” is apparent.
