Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: Ejaculation is the release of sperm from the male, and does not necessarily cause a pregnancy.
Rationale 2: Fertilization is the point at which the sex of the zygote is determined.
Rationale 3: Implantation is when the fertilized ovum is implanted in the uterine endometrium. The sex of the zygote has already been determined at this stage.
Rationale 4: Differentiation refers to a cell division process.

Answer to Question 2

1, 2, 3, 5
Explanation: 1. Early fetal hypoxia can cause fetal tachycardia.
2. Prolonged fetal stimulation can cause fetal tachycardia.
3. Fetal anemia can cause fetal tachycardia.
