Q

twin studies complecations

A

environments of identical twins more similar than frat twins
parents might stress similarities more

Q

epigenetic view

A

development is a result of ongoing bidirectional interchange bn genes an denviornemnt

24
Q

gene x environment interaction

A

he interaction of a specific measured variation in DNA and a specific measured aspect of the environment

25
although genetic factors clearly contribute to behavior and psychological processes, they don’t
determine these phenotypes independently from the contexts in which they develop
26
germinal period
first two weeks after conception includes zygote, rapid cell devision and attachment to uterine wall
27
embryonic period
2-8 weeks cell division ramp up organs appear
28
organogenesis
organ forming in first 2 months
29
three layers of embryonic development
endoderm- digestive/resp ectoderm- nervous, sensory receptors, skin mesoderm- circulatory, bones, muscles, repoduct
30
fetal period
2months-birth becomes active develop genitals finish developing
31
neurogenesis
5th week proliferation of new immature neurons begins
32
neural migration
Cells begin moving outward from their point of origin to their appropriate locations create brain
33
neural connectivity
23rd prenatal week, connections between neurons begin to form, a process that continues postnatally
34
when are teratogens less likely to cause anatomical defects
after organogenesis
35
teratogens exposure durring fetal period
stunt growth, organ functioning problems
36
fetal alc sydrome
facial deformities, defective limbs, face heart, learning problems
37
prenatal cocaine exposure has been linked to
impaired connectivity of the thalamus and prefrontal cortex in newborns lower arousal, less effective self-regulation, higher excitability, and lower quality of reflexes at 1 month of age
38
lack of folic acid
neural tube defects in offspring
39
bad prenatal care is associated with
low brith weight
40
father factors
bad sperm bc lead or radiation smoking over 40+
41
first stage of birth
contractions to 10 cm 6-12 hours
42
second stage of birth
crowing contractions
43
third stage of birth
afterbirth placenta. umbilical cord, and other shit is expelled shortest
44
prepared childbirth
special breathing technique to control pushing in final stages
45
apgar scale
assess health of newborn minutes after birth 1-10 higher is better
46
low birth weight
less than 5 pounds and 8 ounces
47
preterm infants
three weeks before term
48
small for date infants
low birthweight for length of pregnancy
49
preterm and low eight babies tend to
have more health problems
50
kangaroo care
skin to skin for a few hours babies coordinate heart rate and breathing white mom
51
postpartum
three weeks after birth 6 weeks or untill moms body back to normal
52
postpartum physical adjustments
fatigue loss of sleep uterus returns to normal size
53
postpartum emo adjustments
blues
