Answer 2

Answer:

Positive Application:

It helps to detect any sort of chromosmal abnormalities such as those resulting to down's syndrome and fetal infections as well.

Negative Application:

It can also be used to determine the sex of the foetus which can be a problem in places with backward mentality. People can use this test to determine whether the baby is male or female.And sadly in many places if it's female, then abortion is done killing the female foetus(Female Foeticide).
