Dear Student,

Apparent is more appropriate answer here.

Apparent means able to be seen or understood.

Eg-Her unhappiness was apparent to everyone.

Conspicuous means very noticeable or attracting attention, often in a way that is not wanted.
Eg-
In China, her blonde hair was conspicuous.
He tried not to look conspicuous and moved slowly along the back of the room.
