Verified Answer :

  1. The roots are pro meaning "before" and gnosis meaning "knowing" Prognosis literally means "knowing before," which can be interpreted as meaning a prediction about what course a disease will take before it happens. c. is the correct answer here.

    2. The roots are poly meaning "many" and techne meaning "art." Polytechnic literally means "many arts." a. is the only answer that discusses many arts. 

    3. The roots are sun meaning "together" and pino meaning "drink." These roots combine to mean literally "drinking together." People would not be reflecting quietly while retreating if they are drinking together. Drinking together also does not require an internet connection. Drinking together does imply some kind of meeting, so a. is the correct answer here.

    4. The roots are eu meaning "good, well" and phone meaning "sound." The word literally means, "good sound," so c. is the correct answer.
