Praxis 5001 Practice Exams Practice Question

Which THREE of the following words are best to use in a lesson on using roots and affixes to determine meaning?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Using roots and affixes helps students understand word meanings by breaking them down.

**C: Careful** is ideal because it combines the root "care" with the suffix "-ful," illustrating how affixes modify meaning.

**A: Family** does not contain an affix, limiting its usefulness in this context.

**B: Review** includes a prefix but does not effectively demonstrate the use of both roots and affixes.

**D: Endanger** has a prefix but lacks a clear root that students can easily analyze.

**E: Because** is a conjunction and does not feature any roots or affixes relevant for this lesson.
