Developmental Tasks Flashcards
Proponent of Developmental Tasks
Robert Havighurst
A task that arises at a certain period in our life, the successful achievement of which leads to happiness and success with later tasks while failure leads to unhappiness, social disapproval, and difficulty with later tasks.
Development Task
What are the Stages of Human Development?
Pre-Natal Stage
Infancy
Babyhood
Early Childhood
Middle and Late Childhood
Adolescence
Early Adulthood
Middle Adulthood
Late Adulthood
Involves tremendous growth - from a single cell to an organism complete with brain and behavioral capabilities.
Pre-Natal Stage (Conception to Birth)
Age when heredity endowments and sex are fixed and all body features, both external and internal, are developed.
Pre-Natal Stage (Conception to Birth)
Three periods of prenatal stage
GEF
Germinal Period
Embryonic Period
Fetal Period
The pre-natal development period that takes place in the first two weeks after conception.
Germinal Period
The pre-natal development that includes the creation of the zygote, continued cell division, and the attachment of the zygote to the uterine wall.
Germinal Period
It is the inner layer of cells under germinal period
Blastocyst
It later develops into the embryo
Blastocyst
Outer layer of cells under germinal period
Trophoblast
Provides nutrition and support for the embryo.
Life support systems (PUA)
Trophoblast
Pre-natal development period that occurs 2 to 8 weeks after conception.
Embryonic Period
The zygote will become embryo
Embryonic Period
There are two development that takes place during embryonic period. What are these?
Cell differentiation
Life support systems
Organs appear
What does it mean by cell differentiation?
Transformation to another organ
Three layers of cells during cell differentiation
Endoderm
Ectoderm
Mesoderm
Inner layer of the cell during cell differentiation
Endoderm
Outermost layer of the cell during cell differentiation
Ectoderm
Middle layer of the cell during cell differentiation
Mesoderm
What does endoderm transforms?
Digestive and Respiratory Systems
(DR)
What does ectoderm transforms?
Sensory Receptors, Nervous System, and Skin Parts.
(SNS)
What does mesoderm transforms?
Muscular, Excretory, Reproductive, Circulatory, and Skeletal Systems.
(MERCS)
What are the three life support systems?
PUA
Placenta
Umbilical Cord
Amnion
A life support system that consists of disk-shaped group of tissues in which small blood vessels from the mother and the offspring intertwine but do not join.
Placenta
It is where the gas exchange happens. (oxygen and carbon dioxide)
Placenta
Contains two arteries and one vein that connects the baby to the placenta.
Umbilical Cord
