Morphology

inspectability = inspectable (transparent) = inspect + able + ity

Formed by adding the productive nominalizing suffix '-ity' to 'inspectable', producing a straightforward noun meaning 'the state or quality of being able to be inspected'.

Etymology

Inspectability comes from inspect, which breaks into in- 'into' and spect 'to look', with the ending -able 'can be' and -ity 'the state of'. So inspectability is the 'state of being able to be looked at', which is why it means 'able to be inspected or examined'.
