Erythroblastosis fetalis may cause:

  1. Cleft lip

  2. Pigmented teeth

  3. Microdontia

  4. Hypocalcification

The correct answer is: Pigmented teeth

Erythroblastosis fetalis can cause hyperbilirubinemia, a condition where the body has high levels of bilirubin due to the destruction of red blood cells. This can lead to staining of the teeth, known as pigmented teeth, which makes option B the correct answer. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they are not associated with erythroblastosis fetalis. Cleft lip is a congenital facial defect, microdontia is a condition where teeth are smaller than usual, and hypocalcification is a condition where the enamel of the teeth is weak and prone to decay. These options are not related to erythroblastosis fetalis and would therefore be incorrect answers.
