B. Nigh/o
C. Eve/o
D. Nocturn/o
Solution
The answer is the first one (A): Noct/i.
Explanation for each option:
A. Noct/i - This is the correct combining form for night. "Noct" refers to night, and the combining vowel "i" is used to connect it to other word parts.
B. Nigh/o - This is incorrect. "Nigh" is not a standard combining form in medical terminology.
C. Eve/o - This is incorrect. "Eve" refers to evening, not night, and is not a standard combining form.
D. Nocturn/o - This is incorrect. While "nocturn" relates to night, the standard combining form is "noct/i".
