What does the term 'arthro' refer to?

  1. Blood

  2. Bone

  3. Joint

  4. Muscle

The correct answer is: Joint

The term 'arthro' is derived from the Greek word 'arthron' which means joint. Therefore, it refers to the structure that connects bones in the body and allows for movement. Options A (blood), B (bone), and D (muscle) are all important components of the body, but they do not relate to the term 'arthro'. It is important to carefully read and understand the question to choose the correct answer.
