The correct answer is: Feeble or weak

The term "frail" refers to a state of being weak or feeble, often due to age, illness, or a combination of factors that affect physical strength and resilience. Individuals who are described as frail may have decreased endurance, muscle mass, or overall health, which makes them more vulnerable to injury or illness. This understanding aligns perfectly with the definition of being weak, which emphasizes the physical limitations that accompany frailty. The other choices do not pertain to the definition of frailty. Some refer to specific processes or phases of rehabilitation, which focus more on recovery methods rather than describing a condition of physical weakness.
