Which prefix means 'too much, too many'?

• A. Too much, too many
• B. Out of
• C. Not, in
• D. Sugar

Answer: (A)

Understanding prefixes that indicate amount or degree helps you decode medical terms. A prefix meaning “too much, too many” signals excess, and in health terms the standard form is hyper-. Because the option that describes itself as “Too much, too many” directly captures this sense, it’s the best match for the prefix’s meaning. For context, hyper- appears in words like hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) and hyperlipidemia (high lipids). Other options point to different ideas: “out of” aligns with exo- or out-of, “not, in” with in- or non-, and “Sugar” is not a prefix.
