Explanation:

• Question 4: "Bronchi/ect/asis" breaks down as bronchi (related to bronchi), ect (dilation), asis (condition). So it means dilation of bronchi. "Pulmono/spasm" is spasm of lungs. "Bronch/itis" is inflammation of bronchi. "Broncho/pneumonia" is pneumonia related to bronchi.
• Question 5: Emphysema is when alveoli lose elasticity and lung tissue swells. Croup is a type of respiratory infection with a barking cough. Asthma is airway hyper - responsiveness. Pertussis is whooping cough.
• Question 6: "Pterygium" comes from the Greek word for "wing".
