Answer to Question 1

C
Explanation: Path/o means disease and -genic means producing; thus, pathogenic means disease producing. Pathological means pertaining to the study of disease. Diseasopathy is not a medical term. -logy means study of, so pathology means study of disease.

Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: Both a vesicle and a verruca result in elevation of the skin, but a vesicle is filled with fluid, as in a blister.
