Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sequoia's heavy drinking puts her unborn child at high risk for developing fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). FASD is a group of physical, behavioral, and cognitive problems that can occur in a person whose mother drank alcohol during pregnancy. This disorder can lead to lifelong physical and mental disabilities. Embryonic poisoning, infantile amnesia, and sudden infant death syndrome are not directly related to the effects of alcohol exposure during pregnancy.
