Surface Forms
Morphology
hemorrhagic = hemorrhage (transparent) = hemorrhage + ic
Formed by adding the adjective-forming suffix '-ic' to the noun 'hemorrhage', so the meaning 'relating to bleeding' is directly derived.
Etymology
The word hemorrhagic comes from Greek parts haima 'blood' and -rrhagia 'bursting out' or 'flowing'. So a hemorrhagic condition is one that causes or involves heavy bleeding, and you can see the same hemo- root in hemoglobin 'blood protein'.
