week 1 content Flashcards
phenotype =
karyotype =
- female karyotype _ _ _ _
- male karyotype _ _ _ _
- male with down syndrome karyotype
karyotype – pictorial view of chromosomes; tells number,
structure and sex
- female karyotype – 46XX
- male karyotype – 46XY
- normal karyotype has 23 pairs of autosomes
- male with down syndrome
karyotype – 47 XY +21 (the +21 tells where the extra chromosome is)
phenotype – observable expressions of trait

BB
Bb
bb
Has to have bb for this disorder to happen

- Surrounded by _____
- sensory or motor innervation ?
- Twisted/spiral shape due ____
Umbilical cord
- Connects placenta and fetus
- 2 arteries – carry deoxygenated blood and waste from baby to placenta
- 1 vein – oxygenated blood from placenta to baby
- Surrounded by whartons jelly – connective tissue
- No sensory or motor innervation – no pain
- Twisted/spiral shape due to fetal movement
Decrease in normal vaginal flora (natural defense), bacteria overgrowth
Bacterial vaginosis

week 4

week 6
skin changes
hyper/hypo pigmentation
striae?
chloasma - what and where?
vascular spider nevi?
hair growth i/d
sweat and sebaceous glands i/d
linea nigra - what and where?
- hyperpigmentation
- striae – stretch marks
- facial chloasma – hormonal changes cause darker skin on face, avoid sun
- vascular spider nevi – vascular lesions
- decreased hair growth
- hyperactive sweat and sebaceous glands
- linea nigra - It appears as a dark, vertical line running down the center of your belly, usually from your belly button (umbilicus) to your pubic area, hormonal and normal, resolves itself after pregnancy
positive signs of pregnancy
Signs that are attributed only to the presence of the fetus, can only be caused by pregnancy
- Auscultation of fetal heartbeat
- Fetal movement
- Visualization of the fetus
detected in pregnancy test
hCG –
Enlarged ovaries, many small cysts along outer edge of ovaries
Polycystic ovarian syndrome
uterus changes
uterus size i/d____
fibrous tissue i/d____
blood flow i/d___
what type of contractions?
which way does uterus tilt when pregnant?
- Hypertrophy
- Fibrous tissue increase
- Blood flow increase
- Braxton hicks contractions - also labor contractions, are a normal part of pregnancy that most women experience in the second or third trimester. They are the uterus’ way of preparing for childbirth by tightening and releasing the muscles.
- Not pregnant = posterior tilt
- Pregnant = anterior tilt
eye, cognitive, and metabolic changes
- intraocular pressure i/d
- cornea thickens/thins
- attention, concentration and memory i/d
- water, fat, and protein storage i/d
- fats absorbed i/d
eye, cognitive, and metabolic
- decreased intraocular pressure
- cornea thickens
- decreased attention, concentration and memory
- extra water, fat, and protein are stored
- fats and more completely absorbed
- increase in subq fat
- lanugo disappears
week 36

treatment – penicillin
Most common STD
Chlamydial infection
Cause –
s/s – fever, rash on trunk looks like sunburn, vomit, hypotension, inflamed mucus membranes
treatment –
Toxic shock syndrome
Cause – toxin release by staph A
s/s – fever, rash on trunk looks like sunburn, vomit, hypotension, inflamed mucus membranes
treatment – hospitalization, IVF to maintain BP, antibiotics
Cause –
s/s – thin, purulent discharge, dysuria, lower abd pain
treatment –
Chlamydial infection

breast changes
hyperplasia or hypertrophy
areolae darken/lighten
veins more/less prominent
striae
secretes what?
- Glandular hyperplasia AND hypertrophy
- Areolae darken, superficial veins prominent
- Striae – stretch marks
- Colostrum secretion
twins - identical (di/di, mono/di, mono/mono) vs fraternal (di/di)
- 2 separate eggs
- Fertilized by 2 different sperm
- 2 separate placentas, chorions, and amnions
Fraternal – di/di
cervix changes
mucous plug
goodells sign
chadwicks sign
hegards sign
- Mucous plug – barrier in the cervix blocks bacteria from entering uterus and reaching fetus
- Goodell’s sign – softening cervix
- Chadwicks sign – blue cervix b/c of increased vascularity
- Hegars sign – soft uterus
what type of sign of pregnancy?
Amenorrhea
- n/v
- excessive fatigue
- urinary frequency
- breast changes
- quickening
presumptive
Changes experienced and reported by the woman that suggest the possibility of pregnancy but can also be caused by conditions other than pregnancy
Subjective
Dominant vs. Recessive Alleles:
2 copies needed
25% chance
only one copy needed
50% chance
Dominant vs. Recessive Alleles:
* Dominant: In autosomal dominant inheritance, only one copy of the altered gene (dominant allele) is needed from a parent to cause the trait or condition to appear in the offspring. 50%
* Recessive: In autosomal recessive inheritance, two copies of the altered gene (recessive allele) are needed, one from each parent, for the trait or condition to manifest. A normal gene (dominant allele) will mask the effect of the recessive allele. 25%
