Answer:

The correct option is: a. amniotic fluid released when the amniochorionic membrane ruptures

Explanation:

Amniotic sac is a sac that protects the fetus in the womb and contains the amniotic fluid. Amniorrhexis is the rupture of the amniochorionic membrane of the amniotic sac and the release of the amniotic fluid. The term water breakage is used to describe the rupture of the amniotic sac, generally at the onset of labor and the release of the amniotic fluid.
