E Correct answer
Explanation

A denizen is an inhabitant or resident of a particular place. The word exotic (meaning foreign or alien) serves as an antonym because it refers to something from outside, contrasting with the sense of belonging inherent in denizen. Citizen and curmudgeon are unrelated terms, while celestial refers to heavenly bodies and horizon is a physical boundary.
