In this exercise, we have given four adjectives. An adjective is a word that gives us more information about a noun or pronoun. These are used to describe some quality of a noun like size, color, or shape of a person, an animal, a thing, or a place. By knowing this, we can solve this problem as follows:
<h2>1. Right answer:</h2><h3>abierto</h3>

<h2>4. Right answer:</h2><h3>limpio</h3>
