Genetic testing can be used to tell if a person carries mutation of the CF (cystic fibrosis) gene. The test looks at a person's DNA, which is taken from cells in a blood sample or from cells that are gently scraped from inside the mouth. 

Extra fact: More than 10 million Americans are carriers of one mutation of the CF gene.

The answer is letter d, To ensure proper growth, a fertilized egg must implant in the wall of the uterus.

The fetal development process starts with the conception and implantation. <em>Conception</em><u> is the process by which the male's sperm meets with the woman's egg cell in order to be fertilize</u>d. Once the egg is fertilized, it has to be implanted in the woman's uterus. Once it adheres to the wall, the fertilized egg cell (embryo) now becomes known as a<em> "blastocyst."</em> This is a very essential stage for fetal development because this allows the embryo to receive proper nutrients from its mother.

Implantation occurs at least 6 to 9 days after the egg is fertilized. A woman may experience the following symptoms:<em> fatigue, breast tenderness, increased urination, food cravings, morning sickness, mood swings, headaches, etc.</em>
