Solution

The correct option is C Excessive
'Inordinate' means much more than usual or expected. E.g. Margot has always spent an inordinate amount of time on her appearance. 'Moderate' means neither small nor large in size. 'Inanimate' means having none of the characteristics of life that an animal or plant has. ''Subordinate' means having a lower or less important position. 'Excessive' means too much of something.
Thus, option D is the correct answer.
