Q

4 themes of development

A

early development is related to later development but not perfectly, development is always jointly influenced by hereditary and environment, children help determine their own development, development in different domains is always connected.

Q

What is genotype and how is it made?

A

Gentotye is the complete genetic makeup inherited from the parents. The moment the sperm and egg meet and share their chromosomes, the child’s genotype is made.

Q

What are different forms of genes called?

A

Alleles

17
Q

Dominant alleles

A

Will always be expressed

18
Q

Recessive alleles

A

Hwill be ignored when paired with a dominant.

19
Q

How does genetic disorders effect development?

A

It disrupts them

20
Q

What can be disease is caused by a dominant allele on the 4th chromosome?

A

Huntington Disease.

21
Q

What is Down syndrome cause by?

A

have an extra chromosome, the 21st.

22
Q

What is prenatal development?

A

is effects of the environment, teratogens, prenatal care and birth complications on the newborn.

23
Q

3 prenatal stages

A

The period of the Zygote, the period of the embryo and the period of the fetus

24
Q

What is a zygote?

A

a fertilized egg

25
Q

What is implantation?

A

the zygote burrows into the wall of the uterus and connects to the mothers blood vessels

26
Q

What is a fetus?

A

The fetus is what a developing baby is called during these weeks

27
Q

When is the age of viability?

A

by 22-28 weeks

28
Q

What is spina bifida?

A

Spina Bifida is a disorder where the embryo’s neural tube does not close properly during development. It is caused by a mother not getting enough folic acid in her diet.

29
Q

What is thalidomide?

A

Thalidomide is a teratogen, an agent or factory that disrupts normal prenatal development.

30
Q

What does FASD stand for?

A

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder

31
Q

Examples of environmental teratogens

A

Lead, mercury, pcbs, X-ray’s

32
Q

What is an ultrasound?

A

A medical procedure using sound waves to generate the picture of the baby

33
Q

What is maternal- fetal medicine?

A

doctors administer drugs, hormones directly to the fetus or perform things like blood transfusions

34
Q

Stages of labour and delivery

A

Stage 1: starts when the muscles of the uterus contract and ends when the cervix is fully enlarged
Stage 2: baby is pushed down to the birth canal
Stage 3: placenta is expelled

35
Q
