You're right.
Capital punishment once implied "Off with their head!"

I think you made the correct choice! "CAPIT" is the Latin base that means head. If you're curious about how to arrive at the answer, let me explain:
To determine the meaning of a Latin base, it's helpful to know the meanings of common Latin roots. In this case, we can break down the options:
a) "GNO-" is derived from the Latin root "GNO-", which means "to know" or "to recognize." It does not have the meaning of "head."
b) "LOC-" comes from the Latin root "LOC-", which means "place." It does not have the meaning of "head" either.
c) "CAPIT" is derived from the Latin root "CAPIT-", which means "head." This is the correct answer you chose!
d) "ROG-" is derived from the Latin root "ROG-", which means "to ask" or "to request." It does not have the meaning of "head."
So, the Latin base that means "head" is indeed "CAPIT" (option c). Well done!
