a. ambi- (both)
b. anti- (against)
c. sub- (under)

So, "ambi -" helps reveal the meaning of "ambiguous" as it implies having two (or more) aspects which leads to multiple meanings. The prefix "anti -" means "against", "sub -" means "under", and "pre -" means "before", none of which are related to the meaning of "ambiguous".

A. ambi - (both)
