    The answer is: A) It is a noun.

    An affix is a morpheme or group of letters added in from of a word (prefix) or at the end of a word (suffix) to change its meaning or grammatical category, or to provide inflection. In this case, the suffix - ism forms a noun: from the noun patriot to patriotism, which means nationalism.
