Question 2

Barbara is a law school student who needed money for books. She learned through ads in the campus newspaper that she could sell her eggs for a considerable amount of money. She decided to do so, provided her identity would never be revealed, and she would never have any parental responsibilities for a child born as a result of her donation. She signed a contractual agreement with a lab to that effect. At the time she was unaware that she carried a gene for a rare disorder that results in serious physical disabilities and premature death. When the lab used her eggs and it resulted in the birth of a seriously disabled child, the lab gave the parents Barbara's name and address so she could be tested. This fact pattern raises all but which one of the potential liability issues that may arise in the ART context?
 
  A) deceptive advertising
  B) wrongful birth
  C) wrongful life
  D) failure to properly screen donors
