Answer to Question 1

D
Effective uterine contractions pull the cervix upward at the same time the fetus and amniotic sac are pushed downward.
The contractions are stronger at the fundus.
The internal size becomes smaller with the contractions; this helps to push the fetus down.
Blood flow decreases to the uterus during a contraction.

Answer to Question 2

B
