Question

a worldwide
b local
c accepted
d widespread

Explanation:

"Universal" means applicable everywhere or to all things. "Worldwide" directly refers to covering the entire world, matching the global scope of universal. "Widespread" means existing or happening over a large area/number of people, which also aligns with the broad, all-encompassing meaning of universal. "Local" is the opposite, referring to a limited area, and "Accepted" refers to being agreed upon, not the scope of applicability.

Answer:

A. Worldwide, D. Widespread
