Is cardiocentesis and example of a word root used to link a suffix that begins with a vowel?
No. The root word is "centesis", a medical term meaning "a puncture of a body cavity, usually to remove fluid." It comes from the Greek verb "kente" meaning "to prick."
"Cardio" is a medical prefix referring to the heart. Cardiocentesis is a surgical procedure used to puncture the heart. One condition which could necessitate such a procedure is cardiac tamponade, in which the heart is essentially strangled by an accumilation of fluid in the pericardium, the sac that surrounds the heart. The fluid must be removed, which could be done using cardiocentesis.

In which situation is a combining vowel never used?
A combining vowel is never used when the suffix begins with a vowel. For example, in medical terminology, when attaching a suffix like "-itis" (inflammation) to a root word that ends in a vowel, the combining vowel is omitted. Additionally, it is not used when connecting two root words that already end and begin with vowels, allowing for a smooth transition without the need for an added vowel.
