      A sarcastic Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B disrespectful Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      D indifferent Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The correct answer is: (2) disrespectful. ”Flippant” refers to a remark that shows a lack of respect or seriousness. While ”casual” and ”indifferent” might seem similar, ”disrespectful” best matches the tone implied by ”flippant.”
