Explanation:

For urethrostenosis:

• The term has no prefix.
• The combining form is urethr/o (referring to the urethra), and sten/o (referring to narrowing).
• The suffix -osis denotes an abnormal condition; -stenosis is a full suffix meaning narrowing, but breaking to core parts, -osis and the combining form sten/o are valid, along with urethr/o. There is no prefix, so "Prefix: NA" is correct.

For hypernatremia:

• The prefix hyper- means excessive.
• The combining form natr/o refers to sodium.
• The suffix -emia denotes a blood condition.
