Solution

The answer is B. Early intervention program screening children for developmental delays. This is considered a secondary prevention intervention for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) because it involves early detection and prompt intervention to prevent further progression of the condition. This is different from primary prevention (like option C, offering free healthy pregnancy classes to expectant parents), which aims to prevent the disease from occurring in the first place, and tertiary prevention, which aims to rehabilitate and prevent complications in those already affected by the disease.
