Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
Amniocentesis is used to assess for genetic disorders, to determine alpha-fetoprotein levels (elevated level may mean a neural tube defect; decreased level may indicate a chromosomal disorder or gestational trophoblastic disease), and to check for fetal lung maturity. Placental insufficiency is assessed using a Doppler ultrasound. Ultrasound imaging is used to determine the location of the placenta.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Cultural stereotyping is the assumption that all people of a particular culture think and behave in the same manner. Although specific cultural groups have certain commonalities of belief and behavior, individual differences exist and should be identified and respected.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
