Question

Select the word that means able to recover well after misfortune or damage.
4) In April 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine experienced a meltdown, releasing an enormous quantity of radioactive material into the air.
Although a harrowing tragedy, the accident also provided scientists with a valuable opportunity. Over the long term, they could study the effects of elevated radiation levels on wildlife. In 2014, scientists studying birds near Chernobyl reported that some species were surprisingly resilient. They had adapted to high radiation levels by producing higher levels of antioxidants. This protected their cells against radiation damage.

Answer 1

resilient
