The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the sequence of steps involved in parturition, we need to arrange the given steps in the correct order. Here’s the step-by-step solution: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Initial Trigger**: The process of parturition begins with the signals originating from the fully developed fetus and the placenta. This is the first step in the sequence. - **Correct Step**: III. Origination of signals from the fully developed foetus and placenta. 2. **Mild Uterine Contractions**: The signals from the fetus and placenta induce mild uterine contractions, known as the fetal ejection reflex. - **Correct Step**: I. The induction of mild uterine contractions is called foetal ejection reflex. 3. **Release of Oxytocin**: The contractions of the uterus stimulate the maternal pituitary gland to release oxytocin. - **Correct Step**: IV. Release of oxytocin from maternal pituitary. 4. **Stronger Uterine Contractions**: The release of oxytocin causes stronger uterine contractions, which further promote the release of more oxytocin. - **Correct Step**: II. Stronger uterine contractions causing the further release of oxytocin. 5. **Expulsion of the Baby**: Finally, the strong contractions lead to the expulsion of the baby from the birth canal. - **Correct Step**: V. Expulsion of baby from the birth canal. ### Final Sequence: The correct order of steps is: 1. III 2. I 3. IV 4. II 5. V ### Correct Option: Based on the sequence, the correct option is **B**.
