CPCT Medical Terminology Practice Test

The abbreviation ABDOMINAL corresponds to which body region?

Abdominal region Abdomen Stomach Colon

Correct Answer:

Abdomen

Explanation:

Abdominal is an adjective that describes something related to the abdomen, which is the body region itself. When you map this adjective to the actual region name, the correct noun form is the abdomen. The stomach and colon are organs located inside that area, not the region’s name itself, so they aren’t the right match. Hence, the body region represented by the abbreviation is the abdomen.
