Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
In an anthropoid pelvis, the transverse diameter is narrow. A gynecoid pelvis has an inlet that is well rounded forward and backward and has a wide pubic arch. This pelvic type is ideal for childbirth. An android pelvis is similar in shape to that of a male. The shape of the pelvis does not determine the strength of the bones.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Gravida is defined as a woman who has been pregnant. Para is defined as the number of pregnancies that have reached viability, regardless of whether the infants were born alive. The patient was pregnant three times. The patient delivered two live births. The aborted fetus is not included in the para count. The patient was not pregnant four times.
