Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The upper portion of the uterus provides the force during contractions.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
In more than 20 years of use, ultrasonography has had no detrimental effects on the fetus. Pelvimetry and x-ray uses radiation to visualize bony prominences. Pelvimetry is not used in the pregnant patient due to detrimental effects to the fetus. Palpation does not allow for visualization of soft tissue.
