Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The parts are affixes and roots. Affixes (called affixes because they “affix” or attach one word part to another word part) are made up of prefixes and suffixes. The root is the main part of a word, onto which one or both kinds of affixes may attach.

Detailed explanation-2: -Students benefit from instruction in base words, roots and affixes as part of their vocabulary instruction. As they learn these word parts, it helps them to analyze specific unknown words they encounter, and it helps them to determine the meaning of these words.

Detailed explanation-3: -Affixes are bound elements and roots are free. But there is another important type of free morpheme besides roots in English and these are called function words.

Detailed explanation-4: -An affix added to the beginning of a root is called a prefix. An affix added to the end of a root is called a suffix. Many affixes and roots in the English language are borrowed from the Greek and Latin languages.
