Explanation:

• Question 7: In diabetes mellitus, when there is incomplete fat metabolism, ketone bodies (by - products) build up. Ketoacidosis is the condition where these ketone bodies accumulate in the blood. Hyperglycemia is high blood sugar, hyperaldosteronism is related to aldosterone over - secretion, and myxedema is related to hypothyroidism.
• Question 8: The suffix - physis means condition or process. For example, in terms like "metaphysis" (a part of a long bone related to its growth process). "Thing that grows" is more related to - phyte (e.g., epiphyte), - gland is related to - aden (e.g., adenoma), and "below; deficient" is related to hypo - (e.g., hypothyroidism).
• Question 9: Acromegaly is characterized by enlarged features (especially in the extremities and face) due to hypersecretion of the pituitary hormone (growth hormone) after puberty. Myxedema is due to hypothyroidism, Cushing's syndrome is due to cortisol over - production, and gigantism occurs before puberty when there is growth hormone hypersecretion.
