Solution

The correct option is D Both A and C
Erythroblastosis fetalis is a hemolytic anemia in the fetus caused by the transplacental transmission of maternal antibodies to the fetal RBCs. In this alloimmune condition that develops in the fetus, the IgG molecules produced by the mother pass through the placenta and so is because of incompatibility.
Jaundice is caused because of the excess of bilirubin in the blood.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
