Biennial refers to events that take place every other year or plants that live for two years. It emphasizes periodicity over a two-year span, commonly used in scheduling, horticulture, and formal planning.
- A. Taking place every other year is correct because it precisely defines biennial, highlighting events or cycles that recur every two years.
- B. An increase or addition refers to growth or augmentation, unrelated to periodicity.
- C. A drug that induces sweating refers to a diaphoretic and has no connection to timing or cycles.
- D. A synonym for sullen or moody describes a temperament, which does not convey the temporal aspect captured by biennial.
