Which prefix means through?

against through skin life

Correct Answer:

through

Explanation:

Understanding prefixes and their meanings helps you see how they shape a word. When a prefix means through, it signals passage or movement from one side to the other, as in trans- used in words like transport or transparent. The option that states the meaning as “through” directly reflects that idea, making it the best fit. The other options point to different prefix meanings: against maps to anti-, skin maps to derm- (or cut-), and life maps to bio- (or viv-). Recognizing these connections lets you match meanings to the correct prefix quickly.
