question 135

Explanation:

• Question 133: Silicosis is a type of pneumoconiosis. Pneumoconiosis is a general term for lung diseases caused by inhaling dust. Silicosis is specifically caused by inhaling silica dust. Grinder's disease is a type of pneumoconiosis (related to silica dust exposure in grinders), but pneumonoconiosis is a more general and inclusive term. Whooping cough is caused by a bacterium (Bordetella pertussis) and is an infectious disease. Croup is usually caused by a viral infection and affects the upper airway.
• Question 134: The root “embol -” refers to a plug or clot. “- ism” is a suffix denoting a state or condition. An embolus is a moving clot (or other foreign material like air, fat) that travels through the bloodstream. A localized clot is a thrombus. Oxygen deprivation is related to terms like “anoxia” or “hypoxia”. “Lump” is not related to the root “embol -”.
• Question 135: Psychotherapy is a treatment approach that focuses on treating mental and emotional disorders through non - physical means (such as talk therapy, cognitive - behavioral techniques etc.). Expelling emotions with talking is too simplistic. Treating the subconscious is a part of some psychotherapeutic theories (like psychoanalysis), but the broader definition is treating the mind with nonphysical therapies. Repairing the thought process is more specific to cognitive - behavioral therapy, which is a type of psychotherapy, but the general definition is broader.

Answer:

• Question 133: Pneumonoconiosis
• Question 134: state of a moving clot
• Question 135: treating the mind with nonphysical therapies
