Question

directions: in column a, identify the elements in each word by circling roots and underlining prefixes and suffixes. then match each word with its correct meaning from column b. column a 1. chronothermal 2. geothermal 3. thermometer 4. hypothermia 5. thermal 6. thermography 7. thermogenic column b a. condition of reduced temperature b. relating to both time and temperature c. of or related to heat; caused by heat d. recording a visual image of body heat using infrared devices (medical) e. producing heat (physiology) f. instrument which measures heat g. related to the heat of the earths interior 1. chronothermal 2. geothermal 3. thermometer 4. hypothermia 5. thermal 6. thermography 7. thermogenic

Explanation:

1. "chrono -" means time and "thermal" relates to temperature, so "chronothermal" relates to both time and temperature.
2. "geo -" means earth, so "geothermal" is related to the heat of the earth's interior.
3. "thermo -" means heat and "meter" means an instrument for measuring, so "thermometer" is an instrument which measures heat.
4. "hypo -" means under or reduced, "therm -" means heat, so "hypothermia" is the condition of reduced temperature.
5. "thermal" simply means of or related to heat; caused by heat.
6. "thermo -" means heat and "graphy" means the process of recording, so "thermography" is recording a visual image of body heat using infrared devices (Medical).
7. "thermo -" means heat and "genic" means producing, so "thermogenic" means producing heat (Physiology).
