represents:
Hepatitis B Virus.
Human Immunodeficiency Virus.
Hemophilia.
Herpes Simplex Virus. - ANSWER- ...
The structure that enables blood to circulate directly between the atria of the fetal heart is called
the:
Ductus arteriosus
Ductus venosus
Pulmonary artery
Foramen ovale - ANSWER- Foramen ovale
The chorionic villi are:
The precursor of the respiratory tract in the embryo
The fetal tissue that attaches to the uterine lining
,The maternal tissue of the placenta
The lining of the fetal GI tract - ANSWER- The fetal tissue that attaches to the uterine lining
*Which statement is true about fraternal twin fetuses?
They share the same amniotic sac
They separate at 3-13 days after fertilization
They have fewer complications than identical twins
They share the same genetic profile - ANSWER- They have fewer complications than identical
twins
--> because they don't share any "parts" with each other (other than the uterus)
A nurse is teaching a couple about the process of fertilization. Which statement by the couple
would indicate understanding of fertilization?
"Fertilization takes place in the uterine cavity."
"Fertilization takes place in the ampulla, or outer third, of the fallopian tube."
"Fertilization takes place in the isthmus, or inner third, of the fallopian tube."
"Fertilization takes place in the fimbria, or outer third, of the fallopian tube." - ANSWER-
"Fertilization takes place in the ampulla, or outer third, of the fallopian tube."
--> Actual fertilization takes place in the ampulla (outer third) of the fallopian tube. The fallopian
tubes have a dual ciliary action that facilitates movement of the ovum toward the uterus and
movement of the sperm from the uterus toward the ovary
,A pregnant patient is concerned that she might take a blow to the abdomen if she continues to play
basketball during her pregnancy. The nurse's response is based upon her knowledge of which of
the following facts concerning amniotic fluid?
Amniotic fluid is slightly acidic.
The total amount of amniotic fluid during pregnancy is 300 mL.
The fetus does not contribute to the production of amniotic fluid.
Amniotic fluid functions as a cushion to protect against mechanical injury. - ANSWER-
Amniotic fluid functions as a cushion to protect against mechanical injury.
--> During pregnancy, the amniotic fluid protects against mechanical injury. After 20 weeks of
pregnancy, fluid volume ranges from 700-1000 mL. Some of the amniotic fluid is contributed by
the fetus's excreting urine. Amniotic fluid is slightly alkaline.
At 17 weeks pregnant, a mother asks the nurse questions about the development of her baby. The
mother states that it might be too early to visualize any body structures via ultrasound. The nurse's
best response in relation to fetal development at 17 weeks is:
"Myelination of the spinal cord has occurred."
"Differentiation of hard and soft palate can be seen."
"Hard tissue (enamel) for teeth has developed."
"The earlobes are soft with little cartilage." - ANSWER- "Differentiation of hard and soft palate
can be seen."
, --> Differentiation of hard and soft palate occurs by 16 weeks' gestation. Myelination of the spinal
cord begins at 20 weeks' gestation. Soft earlobes with little cartilage develop at 36 weeks' gestation.
Teeth form hard tissue (enamel) at 18 weeks' gestation.
A patient in the prenatal clinic tells the nurse that her sister has twins. The patient is concerned that
she also might have twins. The nurse's response is based upon her knowledge of which of the
following facts?
Genetic factors in the mother can lead to elevated serum gonadotropin levels, causing double
ovulation.
Twinning occurs more often in Asian women.
The survival rate of monozygotic twins is about 10% higher than that of dizygotic twins.
The chance of dizygotic twins decreases with maternal age up to about 35 years - ANSWER-
Genetic factors in the mother can lead to elevated serum gonadotropin levels, causing double
ovulation.
You receive a phone call from a patient who claims to be pregnant. The patient reports that they
have regular menses that occur every 28 days and last 5 days. The first day of their last menses
was April 10. What would the patient's estimated date of delivery (EDD) be?
Dec. 3
Jan. 10
Nov. 13
Jan. 17 - ANSWER- Jan. 17
