Suffixes are demonstrated as the morpheme that functions as an affix which is added to a root word in order to modify its meaning and form its derivatives(new words).

In the given question, the words that employ suffixes in them are 'audience'(option B), 'hysterical'(option C), 'Contemptible'(option D).

The word 'audience' contains the suffix '-ence' meaning 'state or quality of' added to the root word(verb) 'audio' and giving the new derivative meaning 'the state/quality of hearing'.

The word 'hysterical' employs '-ical' as the suffix which means 'of pertaining to' that is added to the noun 'hysteria' implying 'a mental disorder of uncontrolled emotions' to form new adjective 'hysterical'(means 'pertaining to hysteria').

The word 'contemptible' uses the suffix '-ible' meaning 'being able or suitable to' with the noun 'contempt' that implies 'the state of being disgraced' to form the derived adjective form 'contemptible' which means 'able to be disgraced or contempt'.
