Morphology
posable = pose (transparent) = pose + able
The word 'posable' is transparently derived from 'pose' with the addition of the suffix '-able', indicating capability.
Etymology
The word posable comes from pose, meaning 'a position' or 'posture', just like when someone poses for a photo. That's why a posable toy or figure can be 'put into' many different positions.
