Answer 1

Answer:

A. Husband

• "Mariticide" refers to the act of killing one's spouse (ഒരാളുടെ ഇണയെ കൊല്ലുന്ന പ്രവൃത്തിയെ സൂചിപ്പിക്കുന്നു). The term is derived from the Latin word "maritus," meaning husband, and "cide," meaning killing. 
• The act of killing one's mother is termed "matricide" (ഒരാളുടെ അമ്മയെ കൊല്ലുന്ന പ്രവൃത്തിയെ "മാട്രിസൈഡ്" എന്ന് വിളിക്കുന്നു.) It comes from the Latin word "mater," meaning mother, and "cide," meaning killing.
