Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
Amniocentesis is used to assess for genetic disorders, to determine alpha-fetoprotein levels (elevated level may mean a neural tube defect; decreased level may indicate a chromosomal disorder or gestational trophoblastic disease), and to check for fetal lung maturity. Placental insufficiency is assessed using a Doppler ultrasound. Ultrasound imaging is used to determine the location of the placenta.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Cultural stereotyping is the assumption that all people of a particular culture think and behave in the same manner. Although specific cultural groups have certain commonalities of belief and behavior, individual differences exist and should be identified and respected.
