A Providing space for growth and movement.

[Feedback :- Inadequate amniotic fluid volume (oligohydramnios) can lead to restricted fetal movement and result in contractures.]

B Excretion of waste products.

This is the Correct Answer

[Feedback :- Urine production is the major contributor to amniotic fluid, but in the fetus the placenta is the organ responsible for the removal of waste products.]

C Protection against infection.

[Feedback :- Amniotic fluid contains a number of factors which help prevent against infection.]

D Maintenance of temperature.

[Feedback :- Amniotic fluid helps to insulate the fetus and maintain temperature.]

E Development of the respiratory system.

[Feedback :- Normal amniotic fluid volume is essential for the development of the lungs. Preterm premature rupture of membranes (particularly before 24 weeks' gestation) can cause pulmonary hypoplasia.]
