Describe the order of development from a fertilized egg to a fetus. - Answer ️The zygote (fertilized egg) spends about three to four days undergoing mitosis in the oviducts forming the morula and another three to four days undergoing mitosis while unattached in the uterus, forming the blastocyst as the endometrium prepares for implantation. Upon implantation some cells in the blastocyst begin to develop into three layers which become the embryo. By the end of week eight the embryo is considered a fetus. The presence of _____ in urine will result in a positive pregnancy test taken at home. - Answer ️HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) Describe the supportive cells formed in the blastocyst. - Answer ️Other cells of the blastocyst form supportive cells for embryonic function: the amnion, placenta and umbilical cord. The amnion forms a sac filled with fluid to cushion and protect the fetus. The placenta is a temporary organ that carries out nutritive, respiratory, excretory and endocrine functions for the embryo. The baby continues to grow in the uterus with nutrition provided by the placenta for nine months until it is time for delivery. The umbilical cord attaches the embryo to the placenta. The skin and nervous tissue develop from the ----------- layer of the blastocyst. - Answer ️Ectoderm The inner endoderm layer forms the _________. - Answer ️forms the glands (thyroid, parathyroid and thymus), solid organs (liver and pancreas) and the lining of the hollow organs of the digestive and respiratory systems. The cardiovascular system develops from what layer of the blastocyst? - Answer ️Mesoderm Describe the steps of the formation of the neural tube. - Answer ️The lateral sides of the ectoderm move together (convergence) forming the epidermis superficially. The neural fold forms underneath the epidermis, becoming the neural crest. The neural plate becomes the neural groove and then finally the neural tube once convergence is complete. The anterior portion of the neural tube becomes the brain and the rest forms the brainstem and spinal cord. What supplement is recommended to prevent neural tube defects? - Answer ️folic acid Around what week does the heart begin to have blood flow? - Answer ️Week 3 During what trimester do fingerprints develop? - Answer ️2nd trimester What trimester do the testes descend into the scrotum? - Answer ️3rd trimester What causes the cervix to dilate during labor? - Answer ️The uterus contracts, which pushes the baby's head against the cervix causing it to dilate (widen). What is the second stage of labor? - Answer ️delivery of baby What is the third stage of labor? - Answer ️delivery of placenta
