Morphology

arousable = arouse (transparent) = arouse + able

Standard adjectival formation from the verb 'arouse' with '-able' meaning 'able to be aroused'.

Etymology

Arousable comes from arouse, which originally meant 'to wake' or 'stir up' and is the same idea you see in the common word rouse. So, to be arousable in a sexual sense is to have those feelings 'woken' or 'stirred up' by something.
