exposure to cocaine during prenatal development has been linked to which of the following?
□ impaired neurological development
□ spontaneous abortion
□ small head size
□ childhood obesity

Explanation:

Prenatal cocaine exposure disrupts fetal development: it restricts blood flow to the fetus, increasing miscarriage risk; it hinders brain growth leading to smaller head size and impaired neurological function; there is no established link to childhood obesity from this exposure.

Answer:

• impaired neurological development
• spontaneous abortion
• small head size
