Any guesses? If not, do you know what all the roots and the words mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Look at the synonyms for foot, and look at the choices. Which one best describes it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its B. but im not positive

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's what I thought.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm ... I don't think B. is the answer.

Statio isn't a real word...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Statio is a Latin/Greek root.

You will need to know Latin to solve this one. pes, pedis (m.) = foot digitus, -i (m.) = toe, finger statio, stationis (f.) = station, outpost manus, -us (f.) = hand, handwriting
