Correct Answer: Drained


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Dehydrated is an adjective used to describe a state of extreme dryness, especially as a result of heat. Drained is a suitable synonym in this context, as it implies a depletion of moisture or fluids, aligning with the meaning of dehydrated.

Therefore, the correct synonym is drained.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Braced: This term means to prepare or strengthen.

  • Moistened: This term means to make something slightly wet or damp.

  • Washed: This term refers to the act of cleaning or wetting.
