Explanation:

Question 17

In medical terminology, the prefix "Nario - " (more accurately "Naso - " or related to nasal terms, but "Nario - " here) is associated with the nose. The other options: throat is related to "pharyng - " or "laryng - ", diaphragm to "phren - ", and "opening to nose" is nares or nasal opening with different terminology. So "Nose" is the correct meaning.

Scalene muscles, diaphragm, and intercostal muscles are involved in breathing (scalene and intercostal assist in rib movement, diaphragm is the main respiratory muscle). The iliacus is a muscle of the hip (part of iliopsoas) and not involved in breathing.

Answer:

A. Nose
