Question

Using your knowledge of the prefix trans-, choose the answer that explains where the Trans-Canada Highway goes. A.into Canada B.across Canada C. beneath the Canadian border D.parallel with the Canadian border

Answer 1

B. Across Canada.

Step-by-step explanation:

Prefixes are the words that are added to another word to make a new word altogether. The new word may or may not have the same meaning as the original word used.

Trans- means something that extends across, beyond, through something. Therefore, when we say Trans-Canada Highway, then we mean the highway that runs across the whole nation of Canada. The Trans-Canada Highway refers to the transcontinental highway system that covers the continent from west to east.
