Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback
A Active fetal movement is an expected occurrence.
B The fetus should be able to tolerate contractions lasting 90 seconds if the resting
phase is sufficient to allow for a return of adequate blood flow.
C Expected FHR range is from 120 to 160 .
D When fetal oxygen is compromised, relaxation of the rectal sphincter allows
passage of meconium into the amniotic fluid.

Answer to Question 2

B
The relationship of fetal body parts to one another is characteristic of fetal attitude. The relationship of the long axis of the fetus to the long axis of the mother represents fetal lie. The relationship of the presenting fetal part to the maternal pelvis represents fetal station or fetal position. The part of the fetus that enters the pelvis first represents fetal presentation.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
