Explanation
In the above question to identify the correctly matched adjective and noun, we need to know about an adjective and a noun.
- Adjective
- A word that modifies a noun or a pronoun.
- Example: A tall boy
- Noun
- A word that names people, place, things, and ideas
- Example: Mike has bought a new car. Love is the most beautiful feeling.
- In the above options, the word Restless is an adjective as it can be used to modify a noun or a pronoun.
- Example: A restless boy
- Similarly, the words Restlessly and Restive are also adjectives, and the word Restive is wrong.
