Which term is defined as "chest pain" in medical terminology?

  1. Biotic

  2. Antigen

  3. Anti

  4. Angina

The correct answer is: Angina

Biotic refers to something related to, or resulting from, living organisms or a biotic process. Antigen is a substance that causes the body to produce antibodies against it. Anti is a prefix meaning against or opposed to. Angina, on the other hand, is a medical term used to refer to chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. Therefore, angina is the correct term for chest pain in medical terminology, making the other options incorrect.
