question 57
mal/occlu/sion literally means:
poor/hide/refers
bad/blockage/refers
bad/closure/refers
faulty/bite/refers

Explanation:

• Question 55: Diverticulosis is a condition where there are out - pouchings (diverticula) in the colon. The suffix “-osis” means a condition. “Diverticulum” refers to an out - pouching. So, it is the condition of out - pouching in the colon rugae or fold.
• Question 56: Ileitis is specifically the inflammation of the ileum. Irritable bowel syndrome is a functional disorder, Crohn's disease can affect multiple parts of the gastrointestinal tract (not just the ileum), and diverticulitis is inflammation of diverticula (usually in the colon).
• Question 57: “Mal -” means bad or faulty. “Occlu -” is related to occlusion (in the context of teeth, it is related to the bite). “-sion” is a suffix. So, malocclusion literally means faulty bite.

Answer:

• Question 55: condition of out pouching in the colon rugae or fold
• Question 56: ileitis
• Question 57: faulty/bite/refers
