∘ organ
∘ fiber
∘ muscle
∘ band

1. what does the word part mano- mean?

∘ limbs
∘ hand
∘ knee
∘ loin

Explanation:

Question 1

In medical terminology, the prefix "fasci - " is related to a band (such as a fascia, which is a band of connective tissue). "Organ" is incorrect as "fasci - " doesn't relate to organs. "Fiber" is not the meaning of "fasci - ", and "muscle" is also incorrect as "fasci - " is about bands of tissue, not muscles directly.

In medical terminology (and also in general word roots related to anatomy), the prefix "mano - " means "hand". "Limbs" is too broad, "knee" is incorrect (the root for knee is different, like "genu - "), and "loin" has a different root (like "lumb - " for lumbar/loin area).

Answer:

D. band
