Answer :
Vocabulary.com defines 'root word' as 'In linguistics, a root word holds the most basic meaning of any word. It's what's left after you remove all the affixes — the prefixes like "un-" or "anti-" and suffixes such as "-able" and "-tion." With a word like "lovely," when you take away the suffix "-ly," you're left with the root word "love."'
Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'carcass' as 'the body of a dead animal, especially a large one that is soon to be cut up as meat or eaten by wild animals.'
The word 'carcass' is a word by itself. It has not been formed by attachment of suffixes or prefixes. So, it has no root word.
