Explanation:

Question 7

1. First, identify the type of "Co-" or "Con-": A prefix is an affix added before a root word. "Co-" and "Con-" are added at the beginning of words like "cooperate", "connect", "conjoin", so they are prefixes.
2. Then, determine the meaning: In "cooperate" (work together), "connect" (join together), "conjoin" (join together), the prefix "Co-" or "Con-" conveys the idea of "together", not "without" or "before". So the correct option is "prefix / together".

1. Identify the type of "Chron": A root is the basic part of a word that carries its core meaning. "Chron" is the core part in words like "chronic" (persistent over time), "chronological" (arranged by time), "synchronized" (occurring at the same time). It is not a suffix (added at the end) or a prefix (added at the beginning) here.
2. Determine the meaning: The root "Chron" is related to "time" as seen in the example words. So the correct option is "root / time".

Answer:

prefix / together
