B Correct answer
Explanation

The question asks for the option that is NOT a synonym of 'kowtow.' 'Kowtow' means to act subserviently or show excessive deference. 'Sycophant' (a servile flatterer), 'servile' (submissive), and 'obeisance' (showing respect) all relate to deference. 'Pithy' means concise or brief - completely unrelated.
