Rationale: The term 'Gravid' means being pregnant or expecting a child. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A, 'Thin,' is incorrect as it does not relate to the term Gravid. Choice C, 'Infected,' is also incorrect as it is not a relevant description of the term. Choice D, 'Healing,' is unrelated to the term Gravid and is therefore incorrect.
