Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

C
Overdistention of the uterus in a multiple pregnancy is associated with hypotonic dysfunction because the stretched uterine muscle contracts poorly.
A young primigravida usually will have good muscle tone in the uterus. This prevents hypo-tonic dysfunction.
There is no indication that this woman's uterus is overdistended, which is the main cause of hypotonic dysfunction.
A primigravida usually will have good uterine muscle tone, and there is no indication of an overdistended uterus.
