Question
- outward dilation of the bronchi of the lungs indicates:
○ bronchi/ect/asis
○ pulmono/spasm
○ bronch/itis
○ broncho/pneumonia
- what does the word part caputo- mean?
○ neck
○ dilation
○ tonsils
○ head
Question 19
To solve this, we analyze each option:
- bronchi/ect/asis: "ectasis" means dilation, so bronchiolectasis (or in this form, bronchi/ect/asis) refers to the dilation of the bronchi.
- pulmono/spasm: "spasm" is a sudden contraction, not dilation, and "pulmono" relates to the lung but not bronchi dilation.
- bronch/itis: "itis" means inflammation, so bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchus, not dilation.
- broncho/pneumonia: This is an infection affecting both bronchi and lungs (pneumonia), not dilation.
So the correct option is the one with "bronchi/ect/asis" as it matches the description of outward dilation of the bronchi.
We recall the meaning of the word part "caputo-". The root "caput" (from which "caputo-" is derived) means "head" in Latin. Let's check the options:
- Neck: The root for neck is "cervic-".
- Dilation: As in question 19, "ectasis" or other roots mean dilation, not "caputo-".
- Tonsils: The root for tonsils is "tonsill-".
- Head: Matches the meaning of "caputo-" (derived from "caput" meaning head).

A. bronchi/ect/asis (assuming the first option is labeled A, but since the original has circles, the correct option is the one with "bronchi/ect/asis")
