1.

This theory explains that the onset of labor is caused by the physical overstretching of the uterus as the baby grows. There's a limit to how much the uterus can stretch, and reaching this limit can trigger contractions.

a)

Uterine Stretch Theory

b)

Pressure on the Cervix Theory

2.

This theory explains that the onset of labor is caused by the baby's head pressing against the cervix (known as the Ferguson Reflex), which stimulates the release of oxytocin and prostaglandins, further promoting contractions.

a)

Pressure on the Cervix Theory

b)

Uterine Stretch Theory

3.

This theory explains that the onset of labor is caused by a surge of cortisol from the maturing fetal adrenal glands. This increase in fetal cortisol acts on the placenta to decrease progesterone and increase estrogen production, setting in motion the hormonal cascade that initiates labor.

a)

Fetal Endocrine Control Theory

b)

Fetal Endocrine Withdrawal Theory

c)

Fetal Endocrine Stimulation Theory

d)

Fetal Endocrine Activation Theory

e)

Fetal Endocrine Cascade Theory

4.

This theory explains that the onset of labor is caused by a decrease in the level of progesterone which normally relaxes the uterus. When progesterone levels drop, the uterus becomes more prone to contractions.

a)

Progesterone Withdrawal Theory

b)

Progesterone Stimulation Theory

c)

Progesterone Activation Theory

d)

Progesterone Cascade Theory

e)

Progesterone Control Theory

5.

This theory explains that the onset of labor is caused by an increase in estrogen level. Estrogen levels rise significantly toward term, promoting the formation of oxytocin receptors and stimulating the production of prostaglandins, which both prepare the uterus and cervix for labor.

a)

Estrogen Stimulation Theory

b)

Estrogen Activation Theory

c)

Estrogen Cascade Theory

d)

Estrogen Control Theory

e)

Estrogen Withdrawal Theory

6.

This theory explains that the onset of labor is caused by an increase in the production of oxytocin, which stimulates the uterus to contract. The uterus also becomes more sensitive to oxytocin as term approaches.

a)

Oxytocin Activation Theory

b)

Oxytocin Cascade Theory

c)

Oxytocin Control Theory

d)

Oxytocin Withdrawal Theory

e)

Oxytocin Stimulation Theory

7.

This theory explains that the onset of labor is caused by an increase in the production of prostaglandins. These powerful hormones soften the cervix (ripening) and stimulate strong, coordinated uterine muscle contractions.

a)

Prostaglandin Cascade Theory

b)

Prostaglandin Control Theory

c)

Prostaglandin Withdrawal Theory

d)

Prostaglandin Stimulation Theory

e)

Prostaglandin Activation Theory
