Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, E
Feedback:
The leading indications for cesarean birth are previous cesarean birth, breech presentation, dystocia, and fetal distress. Examples of specific indications include active genital herpes, fetal macrosomia, fetopelvic disproportion, prolapsed umbilical cord, placental abnormality (placenta previa or abruptio placentae), previous classic uterine incision or scar, gestational hypertension, diabetes, positive HIV status, and dystocia. Fetal indications include malpresentation (nonvertex presentation), congenital anomalies (fetal neural tube defects, hydrocephalus, abdominal wall defects), and fetal distress.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The adolescent is capable of abstract reasoning, which would be observed when the adolescent explains how working a part-time job will help pay for a car. All plastic remote controls breaking would be concrete thinking. Asking for a sharp item to cut meat is an example of preschool-age thinking. Saying that the dog moved the bicycle into the driveway is an example of preschool-age thinking.
