Question

A soldier or sailor who rebels or refuses to obey orders of a person in authority is called a:

• A. Radical
• B. Anarchist
• C. Mutineer
• D. Revolutionary

Hint:

Think of the word related to mutiny on a ship or in the army.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

A mutineer is a soldier or sailor who openly rebels against or refuses to obey the orders of a superior officer or person in authority. This word matches the definition given in the question exactly.

Option A, radical, describes a person who holds extreme political or social views. It does not specifically mean disobeying military orders.

Option B, anarchist, is a person who believes there should be no government or ruling authority at all. This is about a political belief, not about a soldier disobeying orders.

Option D, revolutionary, refers to a person who takes part in or supports a revolution, aiming to overthrow a government or system. This is broader than the specific act of a soldier or sailor rebelling against orders.

Since mutineer is the precise term for a soldier or sailor who rebels against authority, the correct answer is option C, Mutineer.
