Chapter 13, Problem 16BMW
Summary Introduction

The word root, combining form, prefix, and suffix are the basic elements that construct the medical words. The foundation of a medical term is called as word root and it consists of primary meaning. At least, the one-word root is present in all the medical terms. A word element found at the end of a word is called suffix. A combining form is formed when a word root is joint with a vowel which is also called as combining vowel.  A word element attached to the starting of word root is called a prefix. Changing or adding a prefix alters the meaning of the word.
