Answer to Question 1

B
Musculoskeletal changes also occur. The pregnant client's center of gravity changes, and lordosis causes low backache and a waddling gait. Relaxin causes relaxation of pelvic joints, and an increase in estrogen causes a loosening of connective tissue and an increase in vaginal secretions.

Answer to Question 2

D
When removing gloves after a procedure, remove gloves without coming into contact with soiled surfaces, to prevent transmission of microorganisms.
