Which term means 'resembling a man'?

• A. Android
• B. Androgen
• C. Anemia
• D. Anesthesia

Answer: (A)

Android comes from Greek roots meaning man and form or likeness, so it literally means “man-shaped” or “resembling a man.” That makes it the best fit for a term used to describe a humanoid, human-like figure, especially a robot. The other terms come from different roots: androgen relates to male characteristics or hormones; anemia is a condition with too few red blood cells or hemoglobin; anesthesia means absence of sensation.
