B) Reverse Trendelenburg
C) Fowler's
D) Lithotomy

Answer 1

The Trendelenburg position reduces blood flow to the upper body, promotes venous drainage, and facilitates respiration.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is Trendelenburg. Trendelenburg position is a body position where the patient's feet are elevated and the head is lowered. This position reduces blood flow to the upper body, promotes venous drainage, and facilitates respiration. By tilting the body with the head down, blood is encouraged to flow from the upper body towards the lower body.
