It helps to break down the word -in is a prefix,- form is a root, -ation is a suffix. Hope this helps!

Answer:

A root, a prefix, and an inflection

Step-by-step explanation:

A word is composed of one or more morphemes, which are the smallest unit of the meaning of a word but that can not stand on its own.

The morphemes may be divided into root words (which hold the most basic meaning of a word) prefixes (Added before a root word) and inflections or suffixes (Added at the end of a root word). The word "information" have all those types of morphemes:

The prefix: in, which means not, no, in or on (also found in the words insecure, invalid, inscribe)

The root word: form, which means ‘shape,’ (found in other words like deformed, formality)

The inflection: ation, which means action or process (found in words like differentiation and personification)
