Answer:

Symbol

Explanation:

Symbols refer to objects, traits, colors, animals, etc. (anything concrete or with a physical existence) that represent one meaning or several (often an abstract) that are entirely different from the actual meaning of its concrete form.

Examples of symbols are white doves (something concrete) that represent peace, and purity (abstract ideas); the color black that may represent death, and owls that may symbolize wisdom.

The answer to this is symbol because symbol stands for an abstract idea such as an idea, quality, concept or condition.
