The root prand means what?

Explanation:
The root prand- refers to a meal. This comes from Latin prandium, meaning a meal, and is seen in medical terms like prandial (relating to meals) and postprandial (after a meal). So the best answer is meal. The other ideas—forming, after/behind, and foot—come from different roots (form-, post-/retro-, ped-/pod-) and don’t fit prand-’s meaning.
