Question

Ben is so terrified of heights that he quit his job on the fifth floor, never drives on roads that go over bridges, and wouldn't visit his mother in the hospital on the eighth floor. Ben most likely has a phobia.

Answer 1

Answer:

Ben most likely has acrophobia.

Explanation:

Acrophobia is a word of greek origin. Derives from Acros, which means "summit", and phobos, which means fear.

Acrophobia is thus, the fear of heights. These can be a serious medical issue in certain situations, as for example, in the scenario described in the question in which acrophobia is affecting Ben so much that he quit his job.
