Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A
Explanation: Lith/o means stone and -tripsy means surgical crushing; thus, lithotripsy means surgical crushing of a stone. -otomy means cutting into, so lithotomy means cutting into an organ to remove a stone. -megaly means enlargement; therefore, lithomegaly would mean enlarged stone. -malacia means abnormal softening; hence, lithomalacia would mean stone softening.
