Answer to Question 1

A
The decidua has three regions: (1) the part resting directly between the embryo and the uterine wall under the embryo (decidua basalis), (2) the portion of the endometrium that surrounds the surface of the trophoblast (decidua capsularis), and (3) the remaining
portion of the uterine lining (decidua parietalis).

Answer to Question 2

D
Non-nutritive sucking and swaddling during a painful procedure can help the infant remain calm and conserve energy. Extremely premature infants do in fact experience pain sensations as others do. Nerve development occurs early during gestation. Pain responses vary among individuals, just as they do throughout life. Opioids (especially morphine sulfate) are the drugs of choice for neonatal and infant pain. But as with administering opioids to any client, the nurse must be cognizant of the individual's respiratory status.
