Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Fetal presentation refers to the fetal body part that is lowest in the pelvis. Examples of presentation are cephalic (head), breech (buttocks or foot), and shoulder.

Answer to Question 2

Although true and false labors have similarities, cervical dilation is present with true labor but not with false labor.
