Question

gandhi may be best remembered for his hunger strikes, which have come to epitomize his brand of peaceful protest. gandhi participated in many of these strikes—most famously, to protest british support for a new indian constitution. that constitution would have relegated india’s lowest caste to a separate, inferior democratic process. without resorting to violence, gandhi made salient the injustices of the proposed system, drawing attention to the inequalities of the day. what is the meaning of salient as used in the passage? bigger or more powerful improved or more favorable prominent or noticeable weaker or less pronounced

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "salient", we analyze the context. Gandhi's actions drew attention to injustices. "Prominent or noticeable" fits as making injustices noticeable aligns with drawing attention. Other options (bigger, improved, weaker) don't match the context of highlighting issues.

Answer:

prominent or noticeable
