B Correct answer
Explanation

Autonomy means self-governance, independence, or the freedom to make one's own decisions without external control. The opposite of autonomy is dependence - relying on others or being controlled by external forces. While 'submission' and 'subordination' are related concepts, 'dependence' is the most direct antonym. 'Slavery' is an extreme form but not the precise opposite.
