Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The linking form of cyt/o means "cell". This can be seen in words such as cytology (study of cells), cytotoxic (harmful to cells), and cytoplasm (fluid inside cells). A is incorrect as the prefix ovo- or ov/i- refers to "egg". C is incorrect as the prefix spermat/o- or sperm/i- refers to "sperm". D is incorrect as the suffix -ectomy refers to "surgical removal" and does not relate to the prefix cyt/o.
