Which of the following cannot be detected in a developing foetus by amniocentesis ?

  1. Sex of the foetus
  2. jaundice
  3. Klinefelter syndrome
  4. Down syndrome

Answer

(2) jaundice

Solution

Amniocentesis is a foetal sex determination test based on the chromosomal pattern of foetal cells present in the amniotic fluid surrounding the developing embryo.

⇒ By studying the karyotype of these cells, sex of the foetus and chromosomal disorders such as Down syndrome (trisomy 21) and Klinefelter syndrome (XXY) can be detected.

∵ Jaundice is not a chromosomal abnormality (it is due to excess bilirubin, usually appearing after birth), it cannot be detected by amniocentesis.
