The provided image shows a medical terminology class activity worksheet. The first part asks to match word roots/combining forms to meanings (Nose, Air or lung, Throat, Chest, Voice box, Breathing, Diaphragm, Mouth). The second part asks for specific medical terms based on various clinical definitions, such as conditions involving the pleural space, physical exam techniques, inflammatory conditions, and respiratory disorders (e.g., Pus in the pleural space, Listening to sounds within the body, Collapse of lung tissue).

Answer

The solution involves identifying the correct medical combining forms and clinical terms based on standard medical vocabulary. **Part 1: Combining Forms** - **Nose:** rhin/o - **Air or lung:** pneum/o - **Throat:** pharyng/o - **Chest:** thorac/o - **Voice box:** laryng/o - **Breathing:** spir/o - **Diaphragm:** phren/o - **Mouth:** or/o **Part 2: Medical Terms** - **Air in the pleural space:** Pneumothorax (pneum- = air; -thorax = chest cavity) - **Pus in the pleural space:** Empyema (accumulation of pus in a body cavity) - **Blood in the pleural space:** Hemothorax (hem- = blood) - **Listening to sounds within the body:** Auscultation (physical exam technique using a stethoscope) - **Endoscope used to examine the airways:** Bronchoscope (bronch/o = bronchus; -scope = instrument for viewing) - **Coughing up and spitting out material from the lungs:** Expectoration (ex- = out; pect/o = chest) - **Inflammation of the pleura:** Pleurisy or Pleuritis (-itis = inflammation) - **To elicit sounds or vibrations by tapping:** Percussion (diagnostic procedure) - **Puncture for aspiration of the chest:** Thoracentesis (-centesis = surgical puncture to remove fluid) - **Hoarseness:** Dysphonia (dys- = difficult or painful; phon/o = sound/voice) - **Inflammation of the voice box:** Laryngitis (laryng/o = larynx/voice box) - **Deficient amount of oxygen in tissue cells:** Hypoxia (hypo- = deficient; ox/o = oxygen) - **Disease characterized by overexpansion of the alveoli with air:** Emphysema (destructive lung disease) - **Nosebleed:** Epistaxis - **Cancer originating in the bronchus:** Bronchogenic Carcinoma (-genic = produced by/originating in) - **Collapse of lung tissue:** Atelectasis (atel- = incomplete; -ectasis = expansion) - **Material expelled from the lungs by coughing:** Sputum - **High-pitched crowing sound signaling obstruction in the upper airway:** Stridor - **Blood clot in the lungs:** Pulmonary embolism (a blockage in one of the pulmonary arteries) - **Surgical creation of an opening in the trachea:** Tracheotomy (-tomy = incision; often leading to a tracheostomy) - **Disease characterized by paroxysmal wheezing, dyspnea, & cough:** Asthma - **Excessive movement of air in and out of the lungs:** Hyperventilation (hyper- = excessive) - **Disorder that is a combination of emphysema & chronic bronchitis:** COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)
