Question

choose the correct answer. which word part means \clot\? cyt/o phleb/o thromb/o ather/o

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each word part:

• "cyt/o" means cell.
• "phleb/o" means vein.
• "thromb/o" means clot (related to thrombus, a blood clot).
• "ather/o" means plaque (as in atherosclerosis).

So the word part meaning "clot" is thromb/o.

Answer:

C. thromb/o (assuming the options are labeled A: cyt/o, B: phleb/o, C: thromb/o, D: ather/o; if labels differ, adjust to the correct label with thromb/o)
