D. If a woman suffers from high blood pressure during pregnancy, the risk of the child's developing schizophrenia later in life increases dramatically.

The answer is A. Prenatal exposure to infections and diseases such as influenza, rubella, toxoplasmosis, and herpes has been linked to increased risk of schizophrenia.
