Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback
A Kidneys and adrenals function during fetal life. The fetus continuously swallows
amniotic fluid, which is filtered through the kidneys.
B Most of the fetal blood flow bypasses the nonfunctional lungs and liver.
C Near term, the eyes are open and the fetus can hear.
D The gastrointestinal system functions during fetal life.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback
A Although talking about their feelings may unburden them of negative feelings,
infertility can be a major stressor that affects the couple's relationships with
family and friends.
B Limiting their interactions to other infertile couples may be a beginning point for
addressing psychosocial needs, but depending on where the other couple is in
their own recovery process, this may or may not be of assistance to them.
C Venting negative feelings may unburden the couple. A support group may
provide a safe haven for the couple to share their experiences and gain insight
from others' experiences.
D This statement is not supportive of the psychosocial needs of this couple and
may be detrimental to their well-being.
