The term that means of, or relating to swine

• A. Porcine
• B. Canine
• C. Equine
• D. Feline

Answer: (A)

Porcine means of, or relating to, swine. It comes from Latin porcus and is the standard adjective used in veterinary medicine and scientific writing to describe pigs, pig anatomy, diseases, or pig-derived materials. For example, porcine anatomy or porcine tissues are common phrases in clinical notes and research. The other terms refer to different species—canine to dogs, equine to horses, and feline to cats—so they aren’t appropriate when the topic is about swine.
