The correct answers are "a-" and "im-". An affix is a letter of group letters that when added to a word, it can change its meaning. The affixes "a-" and "im-" mean "without", some examples of the use of these affixes are: apolitical, atypical, amoral, asocial, impractical, impatience and imperforate.
