Analyze Question 8

Using the Suffixes in Medicine and Medical Terminology knowledge points:

• The question asks for the suffix meaning "pertaining to".
• Let's analyze the given options:
• -ism means condition, state, or theory.
• -or means one who or that which does something.
• -ia means condition or state.
• -tic means pertaining to (e.g., thoracic, acoustic).
• Therefore, -tic is the correct suffix meaning "pertaining to".

Analyze Question 9

Using the Medical Terminology knowledge point:

• The question asks for the prefix(es) meaning "in" or "into" (choose all that apply).
• Let's analyze the given options:
• epi- means upon, on, or over.
• endo- means within, inner, or inside.
• em- is a variant of en- meaning in, into, or within (e.g., empyema, empathy).
• in- means in, into, or not (e.g., incision, inhalation).
• Both em- and in- directly mean "in" or "into". endo- specifically means "within" or "inner", but is sometimes grouped with "in" depending on introductory terminology lists. However, strictly speaking, em- and in- are the direct translations for "in/into". Let's select em- and in-.
