Answer to Question 1

C
Placenta previa usually occurs in the third trimester. Painless uterine bleeding is the classic symptom. DIC is a life-threatening complication of abruptio placentae in which procoagulation and anticoagulation factors are simultaneously activated. Gestational trophoblastic disease is usually detected in the first trimester of pregnancy. The frequency of this condition is highest at both ends of a woman's reproductive life. Abruptio placentae usually occurs in the third trimester. Painful uterine bleeding is the classic symptom.

Answer to Question 2

A
It may take a month or more for all sperm to be removed from the system. During that time, an additional method of contraception must be used.
Vasectomies have a high success rate but it may take a month for all the sperm to be removed from the system.
After one month usually all the sperm have been removed from the system.
A vasectomy is more than 85 effective.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
