Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Enlargement of the uterus, Hegar's sign, and a positive pregnancy test are called probable signs of pregnancy because they indicate a woman is probably pregnant.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Pregnancy is definitely confirmed when positive signs are present. Positive signs of pregnancy include fetal heart sounds, fetal movements palpated by the examiner, and fetal outline visualized by ultrasound.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa.
