Answer:
The correct option is: D. This disorder involves feeling overwhelmed and sad for extended periods of time
Explanation:
Autism spectrum disorder is a type of neurodevelopmental disorder, characterized by restricted and repetitive behavior, activities or interests; difficulty in paying attention, social interactions and hyperactivity.
The risk of autism spectrum disorder increases if one has a family history of autism. Exposure to environmental metal pollution like aluminium, lead, mercury may also induce autism spectrum disorders.
Therefore, the statement D. This disorder involves feeling overwhelmed and sad for extended periods of time, is incorrect about autism spectrum disorder.
