What percentage of newborns are born with major congenital malformations?

  1. 1%

  2. 3%

  3. 5%

  4. 10%

The correct answer is: 3%

Major congenital malformations occur in approximately 3% of newborns. This means that out of every 100 newborns, about 3 of them will have a major birth defect. A is incorrect because 1% is too low and does not accurately reflect the prevalence of congenital malformations. C and D are both too high, suggesting that a larger percentage of newborns are born with major malformations, which is not the case.
