Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
R means the fetus's back is on the right side of the mother's abdomen. O means occiput, the fetus's head is downward. A means the fetus is directed anteriorly. Engaged means the head is firmly fixed in the pelvis.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The woman's behavior commonly changes throughout the course of her labor. Initially, she tends to be euphoric, then self-centered. In the second stage, amnesia is common. Fatigue and elation occur in the third and fourth stages.
