Answer to Question 1

FALSE
Explanation: The combining form carcin/o means cancer; the combining form path/o means disease.

Answer to Question 2

When we view external objects, the light rays strike the eye and then pass through the cornea, aqueous humor, pupil, lens, and vitreous humor. The rays then reach the retina and stimulate the rods and cones. An upside-down image is relayed along nerve impulses to the optic nerve. The images are transferred to the brain where the images are turned into a right-side-up image.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
