Answer to Question 1

ANS: b
Feedback
a. Fetal position during pregnancy changes, and position in the first trimester is not indicative of position later in pregnancy.
b. Fetal growth and size are fairly consistent during the first trimester and are a reliable indicator of the weeks of gestation.
c. Fetal growth is best assessed later in pregnancy.
d. The primary rationale for ultrasounds is not to determine gender.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: present; future
The adolescent may not seek prenatal care unless pressured by authority figures or peers to do so. By nature, adolescents are not future oriented. Hence, the pregnant adolescent may not be able to readily accept the reality of the unborn child.
