Question

which is not an appropriate synonym for mimic as used in this sentence?

five years later, the massachusetts institute of technology founded its artificial intelligence laboratory in a quest to mechanically mimic human minds as well as hands.

○ impersonate

○ imitate

○ copy

○ oppose

Explanation:

"Mimic" means to imitate or copy. "Impersonate" (to pretend to be someone else, which is a form of imitation), "imitate" (to follow or copy), and "copy" (to replicate) are all related to the idea of mimicking. "Oppose" means to be against or resist, which has no relation to the meaning of "mimic".

Answer:

oppose
