Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Leopold maneuvers help identify the number of fetuses, the fetal lie and attitude, and the degree of descent of the presenting part into the pelvis. The gender of the fetus is not a goal of the examination at this time.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The active phase is characterized by moderate, regular contractions; 4- to 7-cm dilation; and a duration of 3 to 6 hours. The latent phase is characterized by mild-to-moderate, irregular contractions; dilation up to 3 cm; brownish-topale pink mucus, and a duration of 6 to 8 hours. No official lull phase exists in the first stage. The transition phase is characterized by strong to very strong, regular contractions; 8- to 10-cm dilation; and a duration of 20 to 40 minutes.
