Which of these drugs is used to promote fetal lung maturation?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Dexamethasone is used to promote fetal lung maturation. This may be necessary in cases of women who need to deliver prematurely. A tocolytic drug, such as nifedipine, may be used to suppress labor whilst dexamethasone works to accelerate fetal lung development.

I thought Methotrexate was for cancer, not lungs?

I recall that nifedipine is used for hypertension in pregnancy, but I can't remember if it helps with lung maturation.

I’m confused between dexamethasone and prednisolone. Aren't they both corticosteroids?

I think it's dexamethasone, but I’m not completely sure. I remember it being mentioned in class for lung development.

I'm leaning towards option D. Since there are 4 input files, it makes sense to have 4 reducer tasks to process them. But I'll double-check the requirements just to be sure.

Okay, I know we need to add a button to the form, so I'm thinking option C is the way to go. Editing the XML seems like the right approach here.
