Answer 2

The loss of an embryo or fetus during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy is referred to as a miscarriage or __________.

spontaneous abortion.

Step-by-step explanation:

A miscarriage or spontaneous abortion is the loss of a fetus inside the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. It is called that because the women have not developed the rights conditions to carry the fetus into its final stage. The majority of miscarriages happen in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy and they are due to age, substance influence, diabetes, and thyroid problems. Which develop in most of the cases chromosomal abnormalities.
