What word describes various or many?

  1. Diverse

  2. Famished

  3. Alter

  4. Congregate

The correct answer is: Diverse

The word that accurately describes "various" or "many" is "diverse." This term is often used to convey a sense of variety or a range of different elements within a group. For instance, when referring to a diverse population, it highlights the presence of many different cultures, backgrounds, or perspectives. The other options do not align with this meaning. "Famished" refers to an extreme state of hunger, "alter" means to change something, and "congregate" relates to gathering together in a group. None of these words convey the idea of variety or multitude as effectively as "diverse" does.
