Amniocentesis or Amniotic Fluid Test or Amnio is the process to examine genetic defects, fluid infection or sex determination by inserting a needle into the Amniotic fluid surrounding the unborn fetus.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>Amniocentesis</u>

Amniocentesis is a prenatal diagnosis which is used to determine genetic defects, fluid infection or sex determination by inserting a needle to draw a small sample of fetal cells through the amniotic fluid surrounding the unborn fetus.

The prime aim of Amniocentesis is to detect chromosomal deficiencies and cure the fetus with all possible processes so that the baby may be normal and healthy at the time of delivery.

This process is performed when the woman is 15-20 weeks pregnant. The test has the tendency to spread quick and possesses the probabilities of miscarriage.

Which of the following is an example of genetic discrimination?
Rudiy27

Timothy does not get a promotion at work because he has cancer is an example of genetic discrimination.

Explanation:

Genetic discrimination is termed so when an employer or an insurance company treats indifferently an individual with gene mutation or heritable diseases.

The act of not giving promotion and using the genetic information for the reason by the employer is indifferent and termed genetic discrimination as in case of cancer where life expectancy and large insurance claim is the reason.

Insurance companies do not give benefits or insurance to potential people having or prone for having the mutation and heredity disease.

To help overcome this discrimination federal level laws have been implemented as Genetic information non discrimination act. It strictly prohibits the indifferent behaviour of the employers and insurance companies.
