The correct answer is "-ize."

For example, I must "memorize" my vocabulary words before the test (I must "commit to memory" my vocabulary words...). On the other hand, "memorable" means that something is able to remembered, the suffix -al means "pertaining to" (natural--pertaining to nature), and the suffix -ies simply changes certain words to plural meanings (party, parties).
