amniotic fluid
When saccharin was added to amniotic fluid researchers noticed an increase in fetal?

substances or chromosomal abnormalities
What is am- biotic fluid?
Amniotic fluid is the fluid that surrounds and cushions the fetus inside the amniotic sac during pregnancy. It provides protection, helps regulate temperature, and allows movement for the developing fetus. The amniotic fluid is produced by the fetus and is mainly composed of water and fetal urine.
What is an example of an abnormality that may be detected by examination of amniotic fluid?
substances or chromosomal abnormalities
What is the shock absorbing fluid within the womb of mammals?
Amniotic fluid is the shock-absorbing fluid found within the womb of mammals. It surrounds the developing fetus, providing protection against physical impact and facilitating fetal movement.
Are lipid tests done to fetuses?
