Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Kegel exercises strengthen perineal muscle tone and improve elasticity. Pelvic tilts strengthen abdominal and back muscles, and straight leg lifts promote venous return. Relaxation exercises do not alter muscle tone or elasticity.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
These activities help the woman in labor relax and work as distracters from pain.
