Q

what happens if the egg isn’t fertilized

A
  • The production of hormones by the corpus luteum declines, and blood levels of progesterone and estrogen fall
  • GnRH is able to stimulate FSH and LH for the next cycle
  • Blood vessels in the endometrium constrict, allowing the uterine wall to release its outer layer in the menstrual flow.

37
Q

what happens during fraternal pregnancy

A

A fraternal twin pregnancy will happen when two eggs are released during ovulation, and if both eggs are fertilized. Most of the time, only one egg is released during ovulation. It is also possible that the ovaries will release two eggs at once.

38
Q

what happens during identical pregnancy

A

To form identical or monozygotic twins, one fertilized egg (ovum) splits and develops into two babies with exactly the same genetic information. On the other hand, to form fraternal or dizygotic twins, two eggs (ova) are fertilized by two sperm to produce two genetically unique children

39
Q

The ______________ are two tubes where the eggs travel through from the ovaries to the uterus. Each month, during a process called ovulation, one of the ovaries releases an egg that travels down one of the fallopian tubes, where it may or may not be fertilized by a sperm.

fallopian tubes

Implantation

43
Q

A newly fertilized ovum is called ________. Less than 1 week of fertilization.

zygote

44
Q

embryo undergoes rapid cell division. Generally completed 60 days after conception

A

Organogenesis

45
Q

A newly fertilized ovum is called a zygote. Less than 1 week after fertilization, the cell has rapidly divided multiple times to become a ______ ready for implantation
.

A

blastocyst

46
Q

After implantation, the placenta develops and
begins to provide nourishment to the developing ________

A

embryo

47
Q

The ______ continues to grow during
the next 7 months. Each organ
grows to maturity according to its
own schedule, with greater intensity
at some times than at others.

A

fetus

48
Q

remaining seven months characterized
by growth in the number of cells and size of
organs until it can support extra-uterine life.

A

Growth (7 months)

49
Q

times of intense development and rapid cell division.

A

Critical period –

50
Q

The word placenta
came from the latin
word for

A

cake

51
Q

“_______” in the sense that these cellular
activities can occur only at those times.

The development of each organ and tissue
is most vulnerable to adverse influences
(such as nutrient deficiencies) during its
own critical period.

A

Critical/Critical period

52
Q

Development of the placenta precedes ________

A

fetal development.

53
Q

what happens to the placenta by week 12

A

By week 12, the placenta is formed. It will
be responsible for the nourishment of the
baby. It continues to grow throughout
pregnancy. It is considered mature by 34
weeks. Under normal conditions,
the placenta will attach to the wall of the
uterus.

54
Q

What is the role of the placenta

A

A disc shaped organ through which nutrients,
oxygen, and waste products can be
exchanged in the fetus. It is also the
principal site of production of several
hormones that regulate maternal growth and
development.

55
Q

1st trimester weight gain

A

4.4 pounds

56
Q

Placental transport mechanisms

A

passive diffusion
facilitated diffusion
active transport
Endocytosis

57
Q

Substances transported by passive diffusion

A

Water, oxygen, CO2, fatty
acids, glucose, vitamins E
and K, sodium, chloride

58
Q

Substances transported by Facilitated diffusion

A

Most monosaccharides

59
Q

Substances transported by active diffusion

A

Amino acids, calcium, iron, iodine, phosphate, water soluble vitamins

60
Q

Substances transported by endocytosis

A

Immunoglobulins(glycoprotein
molecules produced by WHC)

61
Q

What is facilitated diffusion

A

is a form of facilitated transport involving the passive movement of molecules along their concentration gradient, guided by the presence of another molecule – usually an integral membrane protein forming a pore or channel. Facilitated diffusion is the passive movement of molecules
across the cell membrane via the aid of a membrane protein

62
Q

What is diffusion

A

Diffusion is a passive process of transport. A single substance tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
until the concentration is equal across the space

63
Q

What is active transport

A

In cellular biology, active transport is the movement of molecules across a membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration—against the concentration gradient. Active transport requires cellular energy to achieve this movement.

64
Q

what is endocytosis

A

is a cellular process in which substances are brought into the cell.
The material to be internalized is surrounded by an area of cell membrane,
which then buds off inside the cell to form a vesicle containing the ingested
material. Endocytosis includes pinocytosis and phagocytosis.

65

All women need to _______ during
pregnancy. It is a physiological result to
foster fetal growth and maternal health.

are any bacterial infections of the female reproductive tract following childbirth or miscarriage.

A

Postpartum
infections,

72
Q

why should extra weight during pregnancy be
avoided.

A

Too much weight gain has been
associated with pregnancy complications,
including cesarean delivery and later
obesity.

73
Q

Women tend to lose about ____ pounds the day of delivery, but subsequent weight loss is highly
variable.

A

15

74
Q

The two factors that determine calorie
requirements are

A

(1) the mother’s usual
physical activity and (2) the increase in
metabolic rate to support the growth
required for growth of the fetus and
accessory organs.

75
Q

The cumulative cost of this extra work is
________ calories. This translates into about
+300 calories per day

A

80,000

76
Q

Normal requirement may be based on _____
and _______ with additional 300
2nd 3rd kcal for the and trimester of
pregnancy.

A

age
physical activity

77
Q

This increase is needed to support the
growth of the uterus, the breast, the
fetus, increase in blood volume, and the
buildup of storage fat.

A

energy

78
Q

The PDRI recommends an additional
________of protein per day
throughout the pregnancy.

A

27 g

79
Q

This nutrient is essential as it forms the
structural basis for all new cells and
tissues in the mother and fetus.

A

protein

80
Q

THESE ARE PROTEINS THAT
SUPPORT GROWTH AND MAINTAIN
