    Using the rules found in Chapter 2, form 5 words not seen in the chapter from the

    components you find. The idea of this activity is to understand the rules for

    combining words. Once you have formulated your words, define each of them,

    and then look those words up in your medical dictionary to see if you have in fact

    formed a real word.

    Type these and submit them as a WORD file to the Dropbox "Chapter 2

    Activity".
