Answer to Question 1

D
Explanation: The combining form ot/o means ear and the suffix -scopy, process of viewing. Not to be confused with the choices ending in the suffix -scope, which reference the tool/instrument utilized in the procedures. Ophthalm/o/scopy is eliminated, as the combining form means eye.

Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: If you do not recall the exact definition, you can break down the term to determine its meaning. This word is composed of the combining form home/o, meaning sameness, unchanging, and -stasis, a suffix that means standing still, thus meaning maintaining internal stability.
