terminology
1. Since every medical term should have a suffix, knowing the
meaning of a suffix is a crucial part to understanding the meaning
of a medical term. Choose three medical terms with different
suffixes and explain their meanings.
2. The suffix -cyte means cell or blood cell. Write all the terms that
have the suffix -cyte including the different types of blood cells.
Explain what the terms mean and refer to the functions and
different characteristics of all blood cells (Make sure you also
explain the 5 types of White blood cells).
3. Prefixes add description to medical terms. They can indicate
location, time, and amount. Provide three medical terms with
prefixes that describe location, time and amount in a medical
term. Divide them, label them and give their meaning.
4. Some suffixes and prefixes are opposites. Provide one set of
suffixes or prefixes that are opposites.
