Morphology

vented = vent (transparent) = vent + ed

Adjectival past-participle formed from the verb 'vent' meaning 'to provide an opening', so the sense 'fitted with a vent' is directly derivable.

Etymology

The word vented comes from the same root as vent and the Latin ventus, which means 'wind'. A vented object has openings so air or gas can move in or out, like giving the 'wind' a way to pass, and that's why vented things let air escape or keep things cool.
