Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
A station of +5 means the fetal head is at the vaginal opening. A station of 5 is considered floating, or the presenting part is 5 cm above the level of the ischial spines. The station at which the fetus is said to be fully engaged is called station 0; that is, the widest part of the presenting part of the fetus has lodged in the pelvic inlet, and the lowest part of the fetal skull is at the level of the mother's ischial spines.
