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.
