As suggested in the thread about anatomy, I’m making flash cards for the medical terminology prefixes and suffixes. There are a few that don’t really make sense to me though. For example:
“bio” means life, but how does that fit with “biopsy”?
“chondr” means cartilage, but how does that fit into “hypochondriac”?
Just trying to get a better grasp on these.
