Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. The prefix "episi-" refers to the pelvic floor and "-otomy" means to cut. An episiotomy is a surgical cut in the pelvic - floor tissue during childbirth to prevent tearing.
  2. The vagina is lined with a membranous mucosa which secretes a glycogenous substance. The glycogen is broken down by bacteria to produce lactic acid, maintaining the acidic environment of the vagina.

Answer:

  1. pelvic floor/to cut/procedure
  2. a membranous mucosa
