Explanation:
<u>This question refers to meter in poetry, which is done by counting the number of syllables.</u> However, different types of meter will count syllables in different ways. An iambic pentameter, for example, will consider an unstressed syllable plus a stressed one as one foot. Each line will repeat that pattern five times, which is why it is called pentameter.
<u>To match the columns above, we need to know the meaning of the different prefixes used:</u>
<u>mono - one</u>
<u>di - two</u>
<u>tri - three</u>
<u>tetra - four</u>
<u>penta - five</u>
<u>hexa - six</u>
<u>hepta - seven</u>
<u>octa - eight</u>
Remember that those same prefixes are used in other fields of knowledge? For instance, in geometry, a pentagon is a figure with five sides and five angles.
