Morphology
reproducibility = reproducible (transparent) = re + produce + ible + ity
This is a standard noun formation from the adjective 'reproducible' meaning the state or quality of being reproducible.
Etymology
Reproducibility comes from the prefix re- meaning 'again', the verb produce meaning 'to make', and the ending -ibility meaning 'ability' or 'can be done'. So reproducibility is the 'ability to make or get the same result again', which is why it matters in science and computing.
