calf
gait
heart
shoulder

Explanation:

Question 46

To solve this, we analyze each combining form:

• "viscer/o-" comes from the Latin "viscera" meaning internal organs.
• "chole/docho-" relates to bile or bile ducts.
• "cardi/o-" relates to the heart.
• "an/cone-" is not related to internal organs (likely a typo, but contextually, the other options are clear). So the correct term is "viscer/o-".

Winged scapulae (a condition where the scapula protrudes) is related to the shoulder region, as the scapula is part of the shoulder girdle. The calf is a leg muscle, gait is a walking pattern, and the heart is unrelated to scapular issues. So the problem is with the shoulder.

Answer:

A. viscer/o-
