Autism significantly affects all of the following EXCEPT
A
Verbal Communications
B
Social Interaction
C
Educational Performance
D
Lung Function
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Evidence has shown children with autism have immature and abnormal breathing patterns. Symptoms of this can include breath holding, “playing” with their breath, irregular fast upper thoracic breathing and so on.

Detailed explanation-2: -Autism affects parts of the brain that control emotions, communication, and body movements. By the toddler years, some children with ASDs have unusually large heads and brains–which may be because of problems with brain growth.

Detailed explanation-3: -The part of the nervous system that regulates heart rate and breathing is involved in autism, a new study suggests1. Specifically, the changes in heart rate that ordinarily accompany breathing are slow to develop in autistic children. Heart rate usually speeds up slightly as a person inhales and slows as she exhales.

Detailed explanation-4: -People with autism can also have difficulty in recalling how tasks are performed and in which order, particularly if they require a combination of visual memory, decision making and motor skills.
