Which term means 'produces vomiting'?
Correct Answer:
Emetic
Explanation:
In medical terminology, a substance that induces vomiting is described as an emetic. Emesis refers to the act of vomiting, while distended means swollen, and hematuria means blood in the urine. So the word that means “produces vomiting” is emetic, used to label agents that cause vomiting. Emetics were historically used for poisoning cases, though today antiemetics are more common to prevent vomiting.
