Morphology
compartmented = compartment (transparent) = compartment + ed
Formed regularly from the noun 'compartment' with the suffix '-ed' meaning 'having compartments'; the derivation is clear to learners.
Etymology
The word compartmented comes from compartment, which uses the simple root part meaning 'piece' or 'share', and you can see the same root in apartment. So something compartmented is divided into separate 'parts' or sections.
