Q

Group 1: tropoblast

A 
•nourishment

Q

Group 2: inner cell mass

A

-inner layer of blastocyst
•develops into the embryo ITSELF

Q

Human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG)

A

Same effects as LH
•maintains corpus luteum past degeneration time
•estrogen and progesterone secrete
-prevents menstruation
-placenta secretes sufficient nutrients but corpus is less important

Q

4th week

Study These Flashcards
A

Rapid growth differentiation
-blood vessels
-lungs kidneys lobe and face structure
Menstruation will be 2 weeks late

18
Q

5th week

Study These Flashcards
A
  • head is large in comparison to rest
  • eyes open
  • 1,3 cm
  • differentiation
19
Q

7th-8th week

Study These Flashcards
A

Human features

  • organs formed
  • nervous system
  • skeleton is cartilage
  • genetic sex determined
  • nostrils
20
Q

6th week

Study These Flashcards
A

Brain grows

  • limbs
  • gonads produce hormone
21
Q

8th week

Study These Flashcards
A

Enlarged organs and growth
-is a FETUS
•paper clip size

22
Q

Extra-embryonic membrane

Study These Flashcards
A

-protection/nutrition/excretion/respiration

  • alla tous
  • amnion
  • chorion
  • yolk sac

All expelled after birth

23
Q

Placenta

Study These Flashcards
A

-chorion into placenta
•stringy projections extend from chorion into the uterine lining
•begin placenta development at 10 weeks
•disk shaped organ that is RICH in blood vessels
-attaches embryo to uterine wall for metabolic exchange

1) embryos actual tissue
2) mothers circulatory pools

24
Q

Umbilical cord

Study These Flashcards
A 
A rope like structure 
•end of 8th week starts to form
-enlarged amniotic sac
•naval of fetus to centre of placenta 
•oxygen depleted blood-fetus to placenta
•exigencies rich blood-blood to fetus
25
Diffusion
•umbilical cord
26
First Trimester •1-12 weeks
•body length growth accelerates •head growth slows •skeleton cartilage hardens and bones develop _reproductive organs distinguishable
27
Second Trimester •13-24 weeks
``` •4th month -heart beat is strong -bones of skeleton form -brain grows rapidly/ nervous system functions -fewtus legs grow so MOVEMENT 5th month: -covered in layer of hair and oil 6th month: -little fat and pink skin from blood ```
28
Third Trimester•25-38 weeks
-final -fetal brain cells develop quicker -testis descend if male -fat in skin -digestive and respiratory systems •NUTRITION important!! 40 weeks approx ready for birth
29
Teratogen
Agents that cause structural abnormalities due to exposure of substances in pregnancy Ex) cigarettes, alcohol, drugs •affect health of the fetus during pregnancy -physically, mentally, developmental delays
30
Alcohol: FAS
Fasd: alcohol consumption during pregnancy that results in disorder of fetus •physical and mental •weight, he aight, face, memory, aggressive, learning
31
Nine months of pregnancy
1st: conception-3rd month 2nd: 4-5 months 3rd: 7th- birth
32
Parturition
``` •BIRTHING process (3stages) •events associated = labour -uterine contractions -15-20min and 20-30s become stronger •hormonal and neural components ~OXYTOCIN helps uterine stretching for contractions ```
33
Contractions
Push fetus DOWN the cervix and stretched until birth occurs
34
Breech
Feet first •dangerous for mom and baby •Caesarean section of unturnable (Incision in abdomen)
35
Lactation
Hormones control onset lactation •breast development like puberty due to estrogen and progesterone (milk prep) -Prolactin : hormone for milk production (Not secreted in pregnancy)
36
Prolactin
Hormone for milk production •ANTERIOR pituitary -colostrum is before milk (yellowish) •oxytocin help out
37
Suckling
Secretion of oxytocin from posterior stimulates contraction of milk glands and ducts for lactation
38
Oxytocin
Produced in POSTERIOR | •causses weak contractions of smooth muscles within breasts to force milk into ducts
39
Dilation stage
Uterine contractions and oxytocin cause cervix to OPEN and dilate •amniotic sac BREAKS -WATER BREAK and amniotic fluid is released through vagina •lasts 2-20h
40
Expulsion stage
Forceful contractions push the baby through the cervix to the birth canal •as bangs moved through= head rotated making it easier for body to pass through ~this stage usually lasts 2h
41
Placental stage
Placenta and umbilical cord are expelled from uterus •expelled placenta -afterbirth ~lasts 10-15min afterwards
