Which of the following is the prefix meaning "excessive, above"?a. -HYPER
b. -HYPO
c. HYPERD. HYPO-

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

a. Hyper.

Explanation:

Hyper is a prefix that comes from the ancient Greek, and it means “above” or “over”. Hypo, on the other hand, means “under”. As a prefix, it comes to change the sense of a word to make it match the meaning of hyper, like, for example: hyperinflation would mean a kind of inflation, in economics, that would be high and quickly accelerating, well beyond or over the standard. Another example would be hyperventilation, a condition in which you begin to breath at a very fast pace, above the normal pace.  

Answer 2
Answer:

According to the information we can infer that the prefixmeaning "excessive, above" is a. -HYPER.

Which is the prefix meaning "excessive, above"?

The prefix -HYPER is derived from the Greek word "hyper," which means "excessive" or "above." It is commonly used in medical and scientific terminology to indicate an excessive or elevated state.

For example, "hypertension" refers to high blood pressure, where "hyper-" denotes the excessive or elevated nature of the condition. Option a, "-HYPER," accurately represents the prefix that conveys the meaning of excessive or above.

According to the above, we can conclude that the other options (b, c, and d) do not have the same meaning or usage in this context. Therefore, -hyper (option a) matches the meaning "excessive".

Which sentence in this excerpt from Patrick Henry's famous "liberty or death" speech at the Second Virginia Convention in 1775 emphasizes the American colonists’ efforts to avoid war? Speech to the Second Virginia Convention by Patrick Henry (excerpt) Let us not, I beseech you, sir, deceive ourselves. Sir, we have done everything that could be done to avert the storm which is now coming on. We have petitioned; we have remonstrated; we have supplicated; we have prostrated ourselves before the throne, and have implored its interposition to arrest the tyrannical hands of the ministry and Parliament. Our petitions have been slighted; our remonstrances have produced additional violence and insult; our supplications have been disregarded; and we have been spurned, with contempt, from the foot of the throne! In vain, after these things, may we indulge the fond hope of peace and reconciliation. There is no longer any room for hope. If we wish to be free—if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending—if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained—we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!
