Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A
The pelvis is visually divided into three planes. The first plane is the pelvic inlet with the transverse segment being corresponding points on the brim of the true pelvis and the
anterior-posterior points being the back side of the symphysis pubis and the sacral promontory. This anterior-posterior diameter of the pelvic inlet is the smallest diameter. This is called the obstetrical conjugate. The second plane is known as the midpelvis and the third plane is the pelvic outlet.
