The part of a thing attaching it to a greater or more fundamental whole; the end or base

Family, ethnic, or cultural origins

A number when multiplied by itself a specific number of times equals another number (e.g. 2 is the square root of 4)

Underground base of a plant (some edible), tree, hair, tooth etc.
