Reflect on the understandings of the mechanisms by which cells are able to govern embryonic development. Specifically, what was your current understanding or speculations regarding the molecular mechanisms by which cells are able to: 1. Control their proliferation 2. Transition into different types of cells 3. Move 4. Shape developing tissues

Amniocentesis and genetic screening reveal that a fetus carries a defective L1-CAM gene. What defects do you expect, and why?
What are morphogens, exactly? Explain how they affect the patterning of tissue throughout embryonic development. Give 4 concrete instances to back up your claims.
Problem:Fetal development takes place in a relatively short amount of time. In just nine months, a functioning human being develops from a zygote formed from the joining of an egg and a sperm. During that time, the fetus receives from its mother through the placenta and umbilical cord everything that it needs to grow and develop into a baby. Form a Hypothesis: Develop an explanation for how a woman’s lifestyle choices affect the substances that enter the fetus. (In paragraph form)
What are the significance of ORGATOGENESIS. State whether it is a normal developmental phenomena or not, support your answer.
A human is a complex organism that develops from a zygote. Briefly explain some of the the steps in this development process in the form of a paragraph. In your answer, be sure to: 1) explain how a zygote formed, 2) compare the genetic content of the zygote to the body cells of the parents, 3) identify the structure in which embryonic/fetal development usually occurs within, and 4) identify the structure that forms, which provides nourishment and waste removal to/from the developing baby.

When do these periods occur? a) 3rd trimester b) 1st trimester c) 2nd trimester d) only at week 12 e) there are no critical periods
Match the major human develop categories with their descriptions. Question 2 options: cellular divisions that occur immediately after fertilization; the original cytoplasm volume remains the same collectively but halves with each division unique form is developing; head, arms, legs, etc. unique tissues are become specialized; neurons, liver cells, etc... the size of each cell is maintained; meaning with each division, the cell's cytoplasm is expanded so that the entire size of the developing fetus is getting larger after each cellular division 1. cleavage 2. growth 3. morphogenesis 4. differentiation
