segmented

/ˈsɛɡˌmɛnɪd/, /ˈsɛɡˌmɛntɪd/, /ˌsɛɡˈmɛnɪd/, /ˌsɛɡˈmɛntɪd/ adj

Having or made of segments.

Word Origin Segmented comes from segment, which is from Latin secare 'to cut' — a segment is a piece cut off. The -ed makes it an adjective: divided into segments. The root secare gives us dissect (cut apart), bisect (cut in two), intersect (cut between), and even insect (from the cut-in body segments). So segmented means cut into pieces.
