The statement that is not true about prefixes is that, some prefixes are added to the end of a root word. Prefixes are only added at the beginning of a root word. The one that is added at the end is called a suffix.

The answer is C: Some prefixes are added to the end of a root word.

A prefix is an affix that is added at the beginning of a word which changes the meaning of it. As the word implies, the prefix, which is only a few letters long, is added before the stem of a word, never at the end. In certain cases, knowing the meaning of prefixes can help you make an educated guess as to the meaning of the word, if one doesn´t know its meaning.
