20000词汇巅峰速记营词汇记忆 第50节词根“bio-”也可以表示“生命；生物”（因为b 、v 音似），于是有：词源：bio-：word-forming element, especially in scientific compounds, meaning "life, life and," or"biology, biology and," or "biological, of or pertaining to living organisms or their constituents," from Greek bios "one's life, course or way of living, lifetime" (as opposed to zoe "animal life, organic life"), from PIE root *gwei- "to live." The correct usage is that in biography, but since c. 1800 in modern science it has been extended to mean "organic life," as zoo-, the better choice, is restricted in modern use to animal, as opposed to plant, life.
