Solution

C.

Erythroblastosis foetalis

Erythroblastosis foetalis is a type of anaemia in which the red blood cells of a foetus are destroyed in a maternal immune reaction resulting from a blood group incompatibility between the foetus and its mother. The Rh system is responsible for the most severe form of the disease, which can occur when an RH-negative woman conceives on Rh-positive foetus.
