Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

Just because an environmental agent is not harmful does not mean that it is beneficial therefore not all non-harmful environmental agents that a pregnant woman ingests aid in the development of the fetus.

This is where the Placenta comes in. It filters out the agents and nutrients that are not needed and passes only the relevant ones to the fetus thereby ensuring that not all non-harmful agents pass through.
