A monozygotic, monochorionic and monoamniotic pregnancy is also referred to as
a. Fraternal Twins
b. Ectopic Pregnancy
c. Identical Twins
d. Singleton pregnancy -Correct Answer ✔d. Singleton pregnancy
Results from the fertilization of two separate eggs during the same pregnancy. May be
of the same or different sexes. They share half of their genes just like any other siblings.
-Correct Answer ✔Fraternal Twins/Dizygotic
Twins that result from fertilization of a single egg with a single sperm and then during
the embryonic development, or during the cell splits, those massive eggs split into two
individuals, which later develop into two offspring. Share all of their genes and are
always of the same sex. -Correct Answer ✔Identical/Monozygotic
The tip of the iceberg sign usually refers to which mass?
a. ovarian cancer
b. cystadenoma
c. dermoid cyst
d. cystadenocarcinoma -Correct Answer ✔c. dermoid cyst
A saclike growth that is present at birth. It contains structures such as hair, fluid, teeth,
or skin glands that can be found on or in the skin. These cysts grow slowly and are not
tender unless ruptured. They usually occur on the face, inside the skull, on the lower
back, and in the ovaries. Form from embryonic cells. -Correct Answer ✔Dermoid
Cyst/Teratomas
These develop on the surface of an ovary and might be filled with watery or a mucous
material. -Correct Answer ✔Cystadenomas
These develop as a result of a condition in which uterine endometrial cells grow outside
your uterus ( endometriosis.). Some of the tissue can attach to your ovary and form a
growth. -Correct Answer ✔Endometriomas

The lecithin/sphingomyelin ratio is used to determine
a. Trisomy 21
b. amnionitis
c. fetal lung maturity
d. fetal cardiac malformations -Correct Answer ✔c. fetal lung maturity
Days 14-28 of the endometrial cycle
a. early proliferative phase
b. late proliferative phase
c. secretory phase
d. menstrual phase -Correct Answer ✔c. secretory phase.
Phase 1: The Follicular / Proliferative Phase -Correct Answer ✔Day 0-14 of the
menstrual cycle.
Main hormone= estrogen
Purpose= to grow endometrial layer of the uterus.
Ovulation -Correct Answer ✔always occurs 14 days before menses: therefore, with an
average 28 day cylce, ovulation occurs on day 14. At the end of the proliferative phase.
Phase 2: The Luteal/Secretory Phase -Correct Answer ✔occurs from day 14 - 28 of the
cycle.
Progesterone stimulated by LH is teh dominant hormone during this phase to prepare
the corpus luteum and the endometrium for possible fertilized ovum implantation.
What are the 4 Phases of the Menstrual Cycle? -Correct Answer ✔Menstruation
Follicular / Proliferative Phase
Ovulation
Luteal / Secretory Phase
At what gestational age can you begin to start measuring the BPD?
a. 9 weeks
b. 10 weeks
c. 11 weeks
d. 12 weeks -Correct Answer ✔d. 12 weeks
The outer walls of the blastocyst are covered by
a. mesoderm
b. ectoderm
c. decidua
d. chorionic villi -Correct Answer ✔d. chorionic villi
Which of the following is least likely to be true regarding cystic teratomas?
a. 80% unilateral
b. common in women over 40
