Answer:

Antonyms: immature and full-grown

Step-by-step explanation:

Antonyms are words that have opposite meanings to each other.

The definitions below are according to Oxford's dictionary

immature:

1. Not fully developed

2. having or showing an emotional or intellectual development appropriate to someone younger.

full-grown:

1. having reached maturity

The words immature and full-grown have directly opposite meanings, therefore they are antonyms

On the other hand, synonyms are words that have similar or very closely related meanings.
