Answer:

Locke feels this term has not been adequately defined

Step-by-step explanation:

The term "idea" is broad and complex, making it difficult to explain and define it efficiently and establishing a full knowledge of that term and the factors that compose it. Locke is able to identify this complexity because he understands that the term idea is not being properly defined, which causes the confusion surrounding that term to continue in a cyclical and endless way.
