Question

question 5
which of the following terms has a suffix that means condition?
pneumonia
hemothorax
empyema
tuberculosis
mesothelioma

Explanation:

The suffix -osis means a condition or abnormal state. In tuberculosis, the suffix -osis indicates a condition. Pneumonia has the suffix -ia which can mean a condition but -osis is more specifically related to a pathological condition. Hemothorax (-thorax means chest), empyema (-ema can refer to a collection of fluid), and mesothelioma (-oma means tumor) do not have the key -osis suffix for condition.

Answer:

tuberculosis
