Solution

The correct option is C Amniocentesis
Amniocentesis is the medical procedure that helps in prenatal diagnosis of sex of the foetus and the genetic or chromosomal abnormalities of a foetus.

It is done by determining the chromosomal pattern of the foetal cells that are present in the amniotic fluid surrounding the foetus.

The amniotic fluid is aspirated and used for the purpose.
