30 - 90cm

32
Q

What structure is a complex system of blood vessels ?

Placental functions depend on what ?

A

Maternal blood pressure

37
Q

What type of drug acts as a vasoconstrictor ?

A

Cocaine

38

A

Embryonic stage : 15th day - 8th week

41
Q

The Fetal stage takes place when ?

A

9th week to delivery

42
Q

___________ development continues long after the embryonic period ?

A

Neurological

43
Q

During what stage of development can Stressors on the system possibly still cause damage to the Neurological system ?

A

Fetal stage : 9th week to delivery

44
Q

When are all systems formed ?

At the end of the 8th week

45
Q

When the fetus has reached fetal maturation, it is less vulnerable to teratogens, except for those affecting what ?

A

4-5 weeks

48
Q

In regards to the Cardiovascular system, Fetus’s have a special circulatory pathway which does what ?

A

Bypasses the Lungs

49
Q

What does the Foreamen Ovale do ?

A

Connects the Right and Left atria, so blood doesn’t go to the lungs

50
Q

What does the Ductus arterioles do ?

A

Fetal artery connecting the Aorta (main body artery) and the Pulmonary artery (main lung artery) .

Q

What does the umbilical vein do ?

A

Carries oxygen rich blood back to the fetus

57
Q

Placental blood flow is enhanced when ?

A
