question 7 of 10

a. a human that behaves in a robotic fashion
b. a robot meant to perform medical procedures
c. a computer that has turned against its creator
d. a creature that has both human and robotic parts

Explanation:

A cyborg, short for "cybernetic organism," is defined as an entity that has both biological (human - like) and artificial (robotic) components. Option A only focuses on behavior, not physical composition. Option B is about a robot's function (medical procedures) rather than the cyborg concept. Option C is about a computer's action (turning against), not the cyborg's nature. Option D correctly describes the combination of human and robotic parts which is the essence of a cyborg.

Answer:

D. A creature that has both human and robotic parts
