FALSE

Answer to Question 2

(any three of the following):
1. Amniocentesis - common test recommended for women over 35 in which a small amount of fluid is drawn from the amniotic sac and tested for Down syndrome and other abnormalities.
2. Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) - tissue is snipped from the fetal sac and analyzed for genetic defects; used mainly in high-risk situations.
3. Triple marker screen (TMS) - common blood test used to identify certain birth defects and genetic abnormalities. Brenda may alternatively have a quad screen or an integrated screen, which add other components.
4. Ultrasound - common procedure that uses sound waves to create an image of the fetus to show its size and position.
