Morphology
assimilative = assimilate (transparent) = assimilate + ive
The adjective is formed from 'assimilate' with the productive suffix '-ive' and directly denotes capacity to assimilate mentally.
Etymology
The word assimilative comes from Latin parts ad- 'to' and similis 'like', the same root as similar. So an assimilative mind or person takes new ideas in and makes them part of their thinking, which is why such people learn and adapt easily.
