Question - 120

Today's question is courtesy Divya. Connect the visuals.

Answer: The blanked out word in the first visual is anesthesia. The second visual is Oliver Wendell Holmes sr., one of the best regarded American fireside poets and the third is a book by Michael Harrison where he conjectures that Sherlock Holmes was named so partly in tribute to Oliver Wendell Holmes. Oliver Holmes is responsible for coining the word anesthesia. Swapnaa was the only one to get it. Bravo.
