Answer: "Ortho" means "straight" or "correct", while "odontos" means "teeth".

Explanation: <u>"Ortho" is a Greek prefix that means "right" or "correct"</u>. It is used to form many words, such as "orthopedic" and "orthodoxy". On the other hand,<u> "odontos", which also comes from Greek, means "teeth"</u>. In that way, words such as "odontology" and "odontophobia" contain the root "odonto". Taking this into account,<u> "orthodontist" is used to refer to a dentist whose job is to correct the position in which a patient's teeth are</u>.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

White Fang?

Explanation:

The wolf cub was different because it was the only pup from the litter to take after their father by having grey fur instead of reddish brown. He is fiercer and more determined, he wants to explore the surrounding area and he's motivated to learn more about his new life, especially the light.

Since the government is so opposed to readers thinkers walkers and slow drivers why does it allow the procession of men along th
ohaa [14]
In my opinion, there are two possible reasons.

First, the government probably does not think these guys are any kind of a threat to them. I mean, so what if there are some people out walking around when no one knows they're there? It's like the thing about the tree falling in the forest with no one around.
