Which term means 'go to the bathroom'?

• A. Defecate
• B. Contingent
• C. Deficit
• D. Depth

Answer: (A)

Understanding vocabulary for bodily functions helps you match common phrases with precise terms. The act of going to the bathroom, in a formal sense, specifically refers to evacuating waste from the bowels. The term defecate means to discharge feces from the body, so it directly captures that idea. The other words don’t fit because contingent means dependent on something, deficit means a shortage, and depth refers to how deep something is. So defecate is the best match for “go to the bathroom.”
