Explanation:

Question 23

The word part "uvea - " comes from the Latin word "uva" which means "grape". This is related to the appearance of the uvea (the vascular layer of the eye) which is said to resemble a bunch of grapes. The other options: "radiation" is not related, "smaller" is incorrect, and "lung" is unrelated to the meaning of "uvea - ".

The term "pterygium" comes from the Greek word "pteryx" which means "wing". A pterygium (a growth on the eye) has a wing - like appearance. "Fold", "triangle", and "obstruct" do not match the literal meaning of "pterygium".

Answer:

B. grape
