Answer:

25%

Explanation:

Smoking during pregnancy has implications that go beyond harming maternal health. There are so many harms to fetal health that we justify saying that the fetus is a real active smoker.

Smoking in pregnancy is responsible for 25% of cases of low birth weight fetuses, 8% of premature births and 5% of all perinatal deaths. Studies show that smoking in pregnancy can contribute to the sudden death syndrome of the baby, as well as causing important changes in the development of the fetal nervous system. Economic estimates indicate that the costs of perinatal complications are 66% higher for mothers who smoked during pregnancy than for non-smokers.

PtichkaEL [24]

Imagine? Okay then.. Part of a story.. here I go

It was a cold and wind morning when the soldiers woke up. Of course, they had to wake up and immedeatly start their training for the day. The Captain told every single one of the soldiers to line up in rows of six. "Okay soldiers. We have a war in a week. We are going to work hard and win this war for our state. If you don't want to, I suggest you step out of line and walk out of this building." One of the soilders decided to step out of the line, panicking about if he wouldn't make it or not. "Get back in line soldier! We are not quitters!" The captian yelled. I was in the second line. I didn't know how to feel about this war comming on so suddenly. I just took a deep breath and made myself to calm down so I didn't have a panic attack. The next few days we started to train more and more to get ready for this upcomming war to help and keep our country safe. I am going to fight for this country and it's people! I don't wanna be known as 'weak' or 'just joining the military for money' type thing. I wanna help and save the millions of peopl in this country, working, doing their jobs, and them just being them. I wanna keep this country safe. No matter what!

Does this help you? I hope it does haha.. :')
