Question
- macro/phage literally means:
large/eater
big/suction
larger/cell
large/bacteria
- the device or instrument that is used to measure arterial blood pressure by hand is a:
cardiac catheterization
treadmill stress test
sphygmomanometer
sphygmostasis
Question 33
To determine the literal meaning of "Macro/phage", we analyze the word parts. "Macro-" comes from the Greek "makros" meaning "large", and "-phage" comes from "phagein" meaning "to eat" (related to "eater"). So "Macro/phage" means "Large/eater". The other options: "Big/suction" (suction is not related to "phage"), "Larger/cell" (cell is not the meaning of "phage"), "Large/bacteria" (bacteria is not the meaning of "phage") are incorrect.
We identify the device for measuring arterial blood pressure by hand. A "sphygmomanometer" is the instrument used to measure blood pressure manually. "Cardiac catheterization" is a procedure for heart diagnosis/treatment, "treadmill stress test" assesses heart function during exercise, and "sphygmostasis" is related to stopping blood flow, not measuring pressure.
