Explanation:
Firstly, we need to under stand what is bound morphemes. A word is bound morpheme which cannot stand alone as a word.
Answer (a):
fearlessly----> Bound morphemes------> -less, -ly
misleads----> Bound morphemes------> mis-, -s
previewer----> Bound morphemes------> pre-, -er
shortened----> Bound morphemes------> -ed
unhappier----> Bound morphemes------> un-
Secondly, we need to under stand what is bound stem. A stem which cannot occur as separate/ apart from other morpheme.
Answer (b): All options have bound stem
construct----> Bound stem------> -struct
deceive----> Bound stem------> -ceive
introduce----> Bound stem------> -duce
repeat----> Bound stem------> -peat
Thirdly, we need to under stand what is allomorph. It is a alternative form of morpheme.
Answer (c): None of them
are -----> were
have ------> had
sitting -----> sat
wait -----> waited
Bound morphemes or stem are described as the 'morphemes' or 'stems' that are unable to denote a meaning on its own and require another to accomplish its meaning.
a). The bound morpheme is the given words would be as follows:
- Fearlessly - -less, -ly
- Misleads - -mis, -s
- Previewer - -pre-, -er
- Shortened - -ed
- Unhappier - -ier
b). The words that contain a bound stem would be as follows:
Construct - -struct
Deceive - -ceive
Introduce - -duce
Repeat - -peat
c). The words that involve an allomorph belonging to morpheme 'past tense' would be as follows:
- None of the given options i.e. 'were, had, sat, waited' exemplify an allomorph(the way in which a word is represented phonologically).
