Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The pregnant woman who does not experience complications is usually examined monthly for the first 6 months, every 2 weeks in the 7th and 8th months, and weekly during the last month.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Eclampsia (convulsions accompanying preeclampsia) is characterized by seizures. Pregnancy-induced hypertension is characterized by sudden hypertension (an elevation of systolic pressure 30 mm Hg or more than prior readings, systolic blood pressure of 140 mm Hg or more, or diastolic pressure of 90 mm Hg or more). Preeclampsia is characterized by elevated blood pressure and proteinuria. Premature rupture of membranes is characterized by leakage of amniotic fluid from the vagina.
