Question

based on context clues, what is the meaning of the word undefiled as it is used in the passage? x decorative not tainted imperfect

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "undefiled" using context clues, we analyze the options. "Decorative" relates to adornment, which doesn't fit. "Imperfect" means flawed, opposite of what "undefiled" likely means. "Undefiled" has the prefix "un - " (meaning not) and "defiled" means tainted or corrupted, so "not tainted" matches the meaning of undefiled.

Answer:

not tainted
