Explanation:

To solve this medical terminology matching, we analyze each root:

• staped/o: Relates to the stapes (a bone), but here the right - hand side has "sternum" which is incorrect. Wait, no, let's re - check. Wait, actually, "staped/o" is for stapes, but maybe in the given options, let's go step by step.
• seb/o: Sebum is an oily substance, so "seb/o" matches "sebum, oil".
• spir/o: "Spir/o" is related to breathing (like respiration), so it matches "breathe; breathing".
• semin/i, sperm/o, spermat/o: These are related to semen, sperm, or seed, so they match "semen; sperm; seed".
• spin/o: Wait, no, "spin/o" is related to spine, but in the options, maybe a mistake? Wait, no, let's check "sept/o" and "septum; wall off". "Sept/o" means septum or to wall off, so "sept/o" matches "septum; wall off".
• sial/o: Related to salivary gland (sialaden/o is salivary gland, but sial/o is related to saliva/salivary), so "sial/o" matches "salivary gland".
• sphygm/o: Related to pulse (sphygmomanometer), but in the given options, maybe not relevant here.
• somn/o: Related to sleep.

Let's correct the matches:

• staped/o: Wait, maybe a typo? Wait, "stern/o" would be for sternum, but "staped/o" is stapes. But in the given left - hand terms, let's assume the correct matches:
• seb/o → sebum, oil
• spir/o → breathe; breathing
• semin/i, sperm/o, spermat/o → semen; sperm; seed
• sept/o → septum; wall off
• sial/o → salivary gland

Answer:

• seb/o - sebum, oil
• spir/o - breathe; breathing
• semin/i, sperm/o, spermat/o - semen; sperm; seed
• sept/o - septum; wall off
• sial/o - salivary gland
