Answer to Question 1

A, B, E
Feedback
Correct It is critical to remember that characteristics of structural abnormalities
include part of a chromosome missing or added, rearrangement of material
within chromosomes, two chromosomes that adhered to each other, and
fragility of a specific site on the X chromosome.
Incorrect The addition of a single chromosome (trisomy), the deletion of a single
chromosome (monosomy), and one or more added sets of chromosomes
(polyploidy) are numerical abnormalities.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback
A The fetus with adequate reserve for the stress of labor will usually respond to
vibroacoustic stimulation with a temporary increase in the fetal heart rate (FHR)
over baseline of 15 bpm for 15 seconds or more.
B An increase in the FHR after stimulation is reassuring.
C An increase in the FHR after stimulation is a reassuring pattern and does not
indicate problems with the parasympathetic nervous system.
D An increase in the FHR with stimulation does not indicate hypoxia.
