Question 1 of 5
Select the word that means 'on both sides.'
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 'bilateral.' 'Bilateral' means having two sides or affecting both sides. 'Insufficient' means not enough or inadequate, 'bicuspid' refers to a two-pointed tooth, and 'congruent' means in agreement or harmony. Therefore, 'bilateral' is the only word among the choices that specifically relates to being on both sides.
