Solution

The correct option is A Amniocentesis
Amniocentesis is a medical procedure used in prenatal diagnosis of chromosomal abnormalities and fetal infections and also for sex determination in which a small amount of amniotic fluid is sampled from the amniotic sac, surrounding a developing fetus and the fetal DNA is examined for genetic abnormalities.
So, the correct answer is option A.
