The German printer allowed the medical community to share information about medical treatments.
The French Royal surgeon developed techniques for amputation and preventing infection.
The Middle Eastern physician helped distinguish smallpox from measles.

Answer 1

The correct statement about Ambroise Paré is the third one: "The French Royal surgeon developed techniques for amputation and preventing infection."

Brief summary of Paré’s contributions
- French royal surgeon (1510–1590) who served several French kings and was a leading battlefield surgeon of the 16th century.
- Replaced crude cauterization of wounds with more humane methods: he promoted gentle cleaning and dressings and introduced the use of ligatures to tie off severed arteries instead of burning the wound with hot iron or boiling oil.
- Improved amputation techniques, developed surgical instruments and prosthetic devices, and published practical surgical manuals that spread his methods.
- His practices reduced bleeding and wound complications and helped move surgery toward the more scientific, empirical approach that underlies modern surgery (antisepsis and germ theory came later).

For clarity on the other items you listed: the Roman-era figure who shaped early anatomy is usually associated with Galen (and earlier writers like Celsus); the German printer was Johannes Gutenberg, whose press allowed wider dissemination of medical knowledge; and the Middle Eastern physician who distinguished smallpox from measles was the Persian physician al‑Razi (Rhazes).
