Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale:
1. The first day of menstruation is the first day of the cycle. The day her menstrual period ceases is not an indicator of the first day of the cycle.
2. The first day of menstruation is the first day of the cycle. The first day after her menstrual period ceases is not an indicator of the first day of the cycle.
3. The first day of menstruation is the first day of the cycle.
4. The first day of menstruation is the first day of the cycle. The day of ovulation is not an indicator of the first day of the cycle.

Answer to Question 2

D
Uterine souffle is the sound made by the increased amount of blood perfusing the uterus and mimics the mother's pulse. Umbilical souffle is referred to as tunic souffle.
