the suffix \ectomy\ means ...
to cut and remove
to contour

Brief Explanations
In medical terminology, the suffix "ectomy" (like in "appendectomy", "hysterectomy") means surgical removal by cutting. So the correct meaning is "to cut and remove". The other options: "to contour" is not related, "to kill" is incorrect (e.g., "-cide" is for killing), and "to study" is "-logy" related.
