Final answer:
The correct answer to the question of which option is not a prefix is D. Cyte. 'Cyte' is a suffix used to denote a cell, unlike 'Sub-', 'Macro-', and 'Epi-', which are all prefixes.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks which of the following is NOT an example of a prefix. A prefix is a group of letters placed before the root of a word to modify its meaning. The options given are:
- A. Sub
- B. Macro
- C. Epi
- D. Cyte
Options A, B, and C are all prefixes: 'Sub-' means under or below, 'Macro-' means large, and 'Epi-' means upon or on top. However, option D, 'Cyte,' is not a prefix but rather a suffix that means a cell (e.g., erythrocyte or leukocyte). Therefore, the correct answer is D. Cyte.
