Prefixes and suffixes are morphemes added to a root word to change its meaning or grammatical function. A prefix is placed at the beginning of a word (e.g., 'de-' in 'deforestation', 'in-' in 'indiscriminately', 'un-' in 'unsuitable'), while a suffix is added to the end (e.g., '-ly' in 'densely', '-al' in 'agricultural', '-tion' in 'protection'). These additions help in forming new words like 'dishonest' from 'honest' (by adding a prefix) or 'removal' from 'remove' (by adding a suffix).

Understanding prefixes and suffixes is crucial for expanding vocabulary and comprehending complex texts. They allow us to derive adjectives from nouns, adverbs from adjectives, and create words with opposite meanings, as seen in the given text which discusses the environmental impact of cutting trees. For instance, 'forestration' means planting trees, so 'deforestation' correctly conveys the act of cutting them down. Similarly, 'legally' means in a lawful manner, while 'illegally' implies the opposite.
