There are a number of tests that can be done to look for genetic disorders in a fetus. Imaging 36. using ultrasound and analysis of fetal DNA that has escaped into the mother's blood are two noninvasive procedures. Amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) are two widely used methods for testing a fetus for genetic disorders. Use the following unlabeled diagram to explain the three main steps in amniocentesis and the three main steps of CVS. 1R 0 11 二, 。
