Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

C
During the third trimester, amniocentesis is most often performed to determine fetal lung maturity. In cases of pregnancy-induced hypertension, preterm delivery may be necessary due to changes in placental perfusion.
Identification of abnormal cells is done during the early portion of the pregnancy.
The test is done in the early portion of the pregnancy if the metabolic disorder is genetic.
Amniocentesis is done early in the pregnancy to do genetic studies and determine the sex.
