What does the prefix "anti" indicate in medical terminology?

Narrow or tighten
Heart
Clot

The correct answer is: Against

The prefix "anti" in medical terminology indicates "against." In medical terminology, prefixes are added to words to modify their meaning. In this case, the prefix "anti-" denotes opposition, resistance, or acting against something. Therefore, the correct answer is "Against." Options A, B, and C are incorrect: - Option A, "Narrow or tighten," does not accurately represent the meaning of the prefix "anti" in medical terminology. - Option B, "Heart," is not a common interpretation of the prefix "anti." - Option C, "Clot," does not align with the typical usage of the prefix "anti" in medical terms.
