Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

D
Explanation: The term cesarean section was first used to describe this surgical alternative to vaginal birth during Roman times because it was thought that Julius Caesar was born in this way. However, his family name, Caesar, had its origin from such a birth, which literally means to cut, centuries before the birth of Julius.
