The term used to describe the final stage of parturition, which involves the delivery of the placenta is option 1 which is the Expulsion stage. This stage occurs after the baby is born and involves the uterus continuing to contract, which helps to detach the placenta from the uterine wall and expel it from the body. The expulsion stage typically occurs within 30 minutes after the delivery of the baby, but it can take up to an hour. It is important that the placenta is delivered completely and without any fragments, as retained placental tissue can cause bleeding and infection. Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
