What does the term "overtly" mean in the context of clarity and transparency?

  1. Hidden and concealed

  2. Undisguised and unconcealed

  3. Ambiguous and vague

  4. Secretive and deceptive

The correct answer is: Undisguised and unconcealed

The term "overtly" is used to describe actions or behaviors that are open, visible, and easily perceived by others. It emphasizes clarity and transparency, signifying that something is done in a straightforward and unhidden manner. Thus, when something is described as overt, it implies that there is no attempt to disguise or conceal it, making it clear and obvious to observers. In this context, the choice indicating that it means "undisguised and unconcealed" aligns perfectly with this understanding, as it captures the essence of being open and straightforward. The other options suggest characteristics such as secrecy, ambiguity, or concealment, which contradict the fundamental meaning of "overtly."
