Analyze Question 3

The question asks for the combining form that means "bronchus or bronchial tube."

• bol/o is not related to bronchus.
• bronchi/o and bronch/o are both related to the bronchus. However, bronch/o is the standard primary combining form representing "bronchus" (e.g., bronchoscopy, bronchospasm). Let's compare the options: "bronchi/o" specifically refers to the plural bronchi or bronchial tubes, but "bronch/o" is the most direct combining form for bronchus.
• trache/o means trachea (windpipe).

Therefore, bronch/o is the correct combining form.

Analyze Question 4

The question asks for the suffix that means "dilation or expansion."

• -capnia means carbon dioxide.
• -osmia means smell or odor.
• -ectasis means dilation, expansion, or stretching (e.g., bronchiectasis).
• -centesis means surgical puncture to remove fluid.

Therefore, -ectasis is the correct suffix.
