What does prenatal development include (and how long) - Answer- begins with
fertilization and ends with birth
-about 266-280 days/38-40 weeks

3 periods of prenatal development, their term for development, and the time period -
Answer- 1.germinal-zygote-conception to 2 weeks
2. embryonic-embryo-3-8th week
3. fetal-fetus-9th week-birth

What does the germinal period start with? - Answer- conception

When does germinal period begin? What is fertilization? - Answer- beings at conception
through a process called fertilization: sperm and egg cell unite in 1 of the 2 fallopian
tubes

What is a zygote? Where does it move after fertilization in the fallopian tube - Answer- a
fertilized egg that has a full complement of human genetic material. After fertilization in
the fallopian tube, the zygote moves toward the uterus (takes about a week to
complete)

what is blastocyst? how many cells and how many layers? - Answer- zygote has
reached the uterus and experiences rapid cell division
-64-128 cells
-2 layers

explain the 2 layers of blastocyst - Answer- inner mass: cells eventually become embryo
outer layer: trophoblast-a layer that later provides nutrition and support for embryo

what is implementation and about when does it take place? - Answer- the attachment of
the zygote to the uterine wall
-takes about 11 to 15 days after conception
-last stage of the germinal period

, what are the sex differences in conception, for miscarriage, and through the life span?
about what age is the proportion of males to females about equal? - Answer- -about
120-150 males are conceived for every 100 females because sperm bearing the Y
chromosome are lighter and swim faster to the egg than those bearing an X
chromosome
-male embryos are miscarried at higher rates, boys more vulnerable to developmental
disorders, and males in general are more vulnerable to illness throughout the life span
-at 18 years they are about the same

what weeks does the embryonic period include? what is generally included in this
period? (4) - Answer- 3rd-8th week
-rate of cell differentiation intensifies
-major development in the organs and systems of the body
-cell division, cell migration, cell differentiation, cell death, hormonal influences
-support systems for cells form/organs appear

what is an embryo? - Answer- when blastocyst attaches to the uterine wall
(implementation) the mass of cells is now called an embryo

what are the 3 layers of cells in the embryo - Answer- 1.endoderm
2.mesoderm
3.ectoderm

what will the endoderm layer develop into (parts?systems?) - Answer- inner layer of
cells
-develop into internal body parts
-digestive and respiratory systems

what will the mesoderm layer develop into - Answer- middle layer of cells
-develop into parts that surround the internal areas
-becomes the circulatory system, bones, muscles, excretory system, and reproductive
system

what will the ectoderm layer develop into - Answer- outermost layer
-develop into the surface parts
-becomes nervous system, brain, sensory receptors (ears, nose, eyes) and skin parts
(hair/nails)

explain the 2 patterns of development in the embryonic period - Answer-
1.cephalocaudal development (head to body): areas near the head develop earlier and
faster than those farther away
2.proximaldistal development: development starts in the center areas and proceeds to
more distal areas

what do the amnion, umbilical cord, and placenta have in common? - Answer- all of
these are life support systems
