Study of liver is called _________?
Correct answer: A. hepatology
- A. hepatology
- B. hematology
- C. mycology
- D. None of These
Explanation
Hepatology is the branch of medicine concerned with the liver and its diseases. Hematology studies blood, and mycology studies fungi, so those options refer to different fields. Students may choose hematology because both words begin with “hepat-” or “hemat-” in some unfamiliar spellings, but the liver is studied in hepatology.
