Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) is a disorder that occurs when a pregnant woman consumes alcohol and the alcohol passes through the placenta and affects the developing fetus. FASD is completely preventable if women avoid alcohol during pregnancy. Therefore, the correct choice is D. Autism, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome are not preventable as they are primarily genetic or neurological disorders.
