Which word means intricate and complicated?

• A. Capricious
• B. Decorum
• C. Convoluted
• D. Corroborate

Answer: (C)

Understanding this item hinges on recognizing a word that conveys tangled complexity. Convoluted describes something that is highly intricate and hard to follow, often because it’s full of twists and turns that obscure the main point. A convoluted explanation or plot signals complexity that makes understanding challenging. Capricious refers to unpredictable or whimsical changes in mood or decision; Decorum means proper behavior and manners; Corroborate means to support or confirm with evidence. None of those convey the sense of intricate, difficult-to-follow complexity as clearly as convoluted.
