Explanation:

Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) is a group of conditions that can occur in a person whose mother drank alcohol during pregnancy. It can cause a range of physical, behavioral, and cognitive problems. Cognitive disabilities (such as learning difficulties, intellectual impairment) and birth defects (like facial abnormalities, growth deficiencies) are well - known symptoms of FAS. Emphysema and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) are lung - related conditions typically associated with smoking (for emphysema) and long - term exposure to irritants (for COPD) rather than fetal alcohol exposure.

Answer:

B. Cognitive disabilities and birth defects
