How to solve today's Monkey Wrench

Monkey Wrench gives you a hexagonal honeycomb of letters plus the themed category clues listed above. Each answer's letters form a connected path of touching hex tiles, and the first letter of every answer is shown as a hint. Trace adjacent tiles to spell each word; a wrong tap clears the trace so you can start again. Use the lists above to match each answer to the right dashed slot in its category.
