Answer to Question 1

B
Explanation: The combining form ureter/o means ureter. The root sten means narrow and the suffix -osis means condition of.

Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: Don't confuse sprain, tearing of collagen fibers in a ligament, as with your ankle, with strain, stretching of a muscle beyond its normal range, as in your back when you lift something heavy.
