Solution
The correct option is D freedom
The term "domination" means the exercise of power and supremacy over others. Freedom means absence of subjection to foreign domination and power . Power and independence are opposite traits. Hence, Option C is correct. Among the rest of the options, license means authorize the use, performance, or release of (something), civility means formal politeness and courtesy in behaviour or speech, charity means an organization set up to provide help and raise money for those in need. These options do not express this antonym, hence incorrect.
