Close.
Part 1- NaCl - for osmotic shock you would need a concentration that is above or below the normal physiological range - Normal saline is 150 mmol/l or 0.9%.
EDTA: chelates metal ions, which helps inhibit those enzymes that have a metal co-factor.
DMSO: This one is tricky - it's actually to scavenge free radicals  The protectant function only comes into play at really low temperatures where it prevents ice crystal formation.
Triton X-100 is a detergent, used to pop the membranes.

Part 2:NaCl and EDTA are the same as above.  EDTA is not a detergent
Tris: buffering is correct.  Tris buffers strongly at pH7 or there abouts.
Proteinase K: OK.
DTT is there to denature proteins, and probably to help prevent secondary structure in the DNA.
37 is the optimal temperature for proteinase K.

I'm also shifting this to one of the homework forums...
