It means "taken hold of, seized; arrested."

"The suspect was apprehended."

Or figuratively, "taken hold of by the mind, understood."

"When I finally apprehended how easy it was to look up definitions on Google, it was far too late."

It can also mean "to dread."

"The poor lad was so apprehensive about using a search engine that he decided to let someone else do it for him, even if, in the end, he had to wait a lot longer for the answer."
