Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: You may recall from Chapter 6 that my/o is the combining form for muscle. It is derived from the Greek word for muscle, myos. However, in the word myopia, my is derived from the Greek word myein, which means to shut. When followed by the suffix -opia, the term myopia translates into condition of shut vision.
