Answer:

c. average variability - 6 to 10 bpm accurately predicts adequate uteroplacental-fetal perfusion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Persistant bradycardia may indicate hypoxia, arrhythmias, or umbilical cord compression. Variable decelerations suggest umbilical cord compression. Late decelerations may reflect decreased blood flow and oxygen to the intervillous spaces during contractions.
