○ A.
○ Parity

○ Fundus
● Correct Answer
B. Gravida
Explanation
Gravida refers to the number of times a woman has been pregnant,
regardless of whether those pregnancies were carried to term. This
includes the current pregnancy if the woman is pregnant. The term helps
, medical professionals communicate and record the number of
pregnancies a patient has had, which can be important for assessing risk
and managing prenatal care. "Parity," on the other hand, refers to the
number of pregnancies that have reached viable gestational age,
regardless of whether the babies were born alive.

○ The dilation of the cervix.
○ C.
○ The number of times a woman has been pregnant.
○ D.
○ The number of a woman has given birth.
● Correct Answer
D. The number of a woman has given birth.
Explanation
Parity is a term used in obstetrics to denote the number of times a
woman has given birth to a fetus with a gestational age of 24 weeks or
more, regardless of whether the child was born alive or was stillborn.
This is used to describe her reproductive history. Parity is often recorded
as part of a patient's medical history to help manage prenatal care and
assess potential risks in current and future pregnancies. It is distinct from
gravida, which counts all pregnancies, including current ones, regardless
of the outcome. The other options do not accurately define parity.
