What is the meaning of the prefix "Post-"?

  1. During

  2. Before

  3. Near

  4. After

The correct answer is: After

The prefix "Post-" means "after." In this context, it indicates that something is occurring or located after a particular time or position. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Options A, B, and C are not correct in this context: A. "During" does not convey the same meaning as "post-." B. "Before" is the opposite of "post-," so it is not the correct meaning. C. "Near" is unrelated to the prefix "post-," which specifically refers to something that comes after.
