Answer:
Amniocentesis is used for testing "genetic disorders", but is also mistreated for "female foeticide".
Option (b).
Explanation:
Amniocentesis involves the "removal of amniotic fluid from the uterus" for "testing or treatment". It is used in diagnosing any chromosomal abnormalities or fetal disease as well as for "sex determination".
However, this procedure is mistreated by many people to identify the sex of the baby which has increased the cases of female foeticide in the past years. This leads to an imbalance in the male-female ratio. Hence, the use of amniocentesis is banned.
