Question 1 of 5
Which drugs cause birth defects?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Teratogens. Teratogens are substances that can interfere with normal prenatal development and cause birth defects. They include drugs such as alcohol, certain medications, and chemicals. Placebo (
A) is an inert substance with no pharmacological effect. Carcinogens (
B) are substances that can cause cancer, not birth defects. Steroids (
C) are medications that can have side effects but are not primarily known for causing birth defects. In summary, teratogens specifically refer to substances that can lead to birth defects, while the other choices do not have this direct impact on prenatal development.
