Alexxx [7]4 years ago
6 0

Each year, an estimated 1.69 billion pounds of butts wind up every year. Cigarette butts are by far the most littered item in the world. They also present a potential serious hazard to nature. The butt itself is composed of two parts which are the plastic filter and the remnants of the used tobacco. The leftover tobacco may be biodegradable but the filters are made from a plastic material known as cellulose acetate-- a chemical compound that breaks down but never disappears.

What is medical terminology?

Medical terminology is a language used to precisely describe the human body, including all of its parts, functions, diseases that affect it, and treatments given to it. The practice of medicine involves the use of medical terminology.

These common word components make up medical terms:

1) Prefix: When present, the prefix denotes a location, direction, kind, quality, or quantity at the start of a medical phrase.

2) Root: A term's root determines its fundamental meaning. At least one root can be found in almost all medical words. In the absence of a prefix, the term starts with a root.

3) Suffix: The suffix is a final component of a phrase that denotes a function, disorder, status, test, or procedure. If not, it may just state if the term is a noun, verb, or adjective.

4) Combining vowel: To make a word easier to pronounce, a combining vowel (often the letter "o") may be placed between word segments.
