Matching: For each of the following, circle the combining form that corresponds to the meaning given. Chest, Vein, Vessel, Heart, Fatty paste, Ventricle, Atrium, Clot, Artery, Lobe.

Answer

The correct matches for the medical combining forms are as follows: 1. Chest: pector/o, thorac/o (both refers to the chest/thorax region). 2. Vein: phleb/o (ven/o is also commonly used). 3. Vessel: angi/o (refers generally to blood or lymph vessels). 4. Heart: cardi/o. 5. Fatty paste: ather/o (used in terms like atherosclerosis). 6. Ventricle: ventricul/o (refers to a small chamber or cavity). 7. Atrium: atri/o (the upper chamber of the heart). 8. Clot: thromb/o (refers to a blood clot). 9. Artery: arteri/o. 10. Lobe: lob/o (refers to a well-defined part of an organ). In the image, 'Atrium' was incorrectly matched with 'arteri/o' and 'Artery' was incorrectly matched with 'atri/o'; they should be swapped.
