There are high risk of following abnormalities or mis- happening if chorionic villus sampling (CVS)  are performed before 10th week of pregnancy:

a) Fetal defects

b) Miscarraige

c)  Fetal anomalies.

d) Risk of infection

As per the standard recommended by American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the standard time to perform this test is between 10th & 12th week as at that time the chances of risk to fetus is very negligible. In no case CVs shall be conducted before 9th week of gestation.  

It is estimated that there is a risk of 0.5 to 1 % of miscarriage after CVs which usually happens within the 3rd day of test.

nignag [31]

Explanation:

When two species share a common niche, then one is bound to exclude the other. This is due to the stiff competition for resources. The species with a slight advantage in acquiring the resources will edge out the other species from the environment. This has been demonstrated by George Gauss using two Paramecium species grown in the same media in the lab. <em> P. aurelia</em> outcompetes <em>P. caudatum</em>

A bunch of the same critters. Nah I am just kidding, you will find a lack of resources because if they are all the same animals they will all eat the same thing. I hope this helps you.
