Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Viability refers to the fetus's ability to survive outside of the uterus. This usually occurs around the 24th week of pregnancy, although it can vary. The other options are not related to the fetus's ability to survive outside of the uterus. The Apgar score is a rating of a newborn's physical well-being immediately after birth, Braxton Hicks are contractions that help prepare the uterus for labor, and there is no such term as a "survival index" in the context of fetal development.
