A Correct answer
Explanation

Rancor means bitter resentment, ill will, or ongoing hatred toward someone. A grudge is exactly that - a persistent feeling of resentment or animosity. Both describe deep-seated negative feelings held over time. The other options (rumple means crumple, gross means vulgar, grave is a burial place or serious) are unrelated.
