Answer to Question 1

D
Cervical dilation of 6 cm and 100 percent effacement is an indication of the active phase of the first stage of true labor. Bloody show is a sign of impending labor. Nitrazine test positive is a manifestation of amniotic membrane rupture. Vertex presentation at -1 station can occur before labor begins.
