Morphology
unintegrated = integrated (transparent) = un + integrate + ed
The word is formed by adding the productive negative prefix 'un-' to the familiar adjective 'integrated', so the negated meaning is directly inferable.
Etymology
The word unintegrated starts with un- meaning 'not' and the rest comes from integrate, from a Latin word meaning 'whole'. Think of loose puzzle pieces that are not put into one picture; that's why unintegrated means not combined into a whole.
