Forming a New Life
![Page 2: Chapter 3 Forming a New Life. Fertilization: conception, sperm meet ovum. Zygote: single cell union of sperm and ovum Girls: 2 million immature ovum in](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649ea95503460f94bad353/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
• Fertilization: conception, sperm meet ovum.
• Zygote: single cell union of sperm and ovum
• Girls: 2 million immature ovum in two ovaries at birth. Every 28 days is swept along fallopian tube by tiny cilia, toward the uterus or womb. Fertilization usually occurs during the 2-3 days when the ovum is passing through the fallopian tube.

• Boys: sperm produced by testicles at a rate of about several hundred million per day and are ejaculated in the semen at orgasm. Sperm attempt to swim though cervix (opening of the uterus) and into fallopian tubes, but only a few make it. Pregnancy can occur up to five days after sperm enters vagina.

Multiple births
• Dizygotic twins (fraternal twins): unfertilized egg splits and both are fertilized
• Monozygotic twins (identical twins): single fertilized ovum splits into two. Temperament may differ, but most everything else the same.
![Page 6: Chapter 3 Forming a New Life. Fertilization: conception, sperm meet ovum. Zygote: single cell union of sperm and ovum Girls: 2 million immature ovum in](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649ea95503460f94bad353/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Two Types of Multiple Births
• Monozygotic (MZ) One egg – One sperm Identical Twins Share 100% of genes
• Dizygotic (DZ) Two eggs – Two sperm More common Fraternal Twins Share 50% of genes – just like non-twin siblings

Determination of Sex
![Page 8: Chapter 3 Forming a New Life. Fertilization: conception, sperm meet ovum. Zygote: single cell union of sperm and ovum Girls: 2 million immature ovum in](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649ea95503460f94bad353/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Sex Determination
• Chromosomes: Coils of DNA carrying genes Autosomes:
22 pairs not related to sexual expression
Sex chromosomes: 1 pair determining sex XX = female XY = male
![Page 9: Chapter 3 Forming a New Life. Fertilization: conception, sperm meet ovum. Zygote: single cell union of sperm and ovum Girls: 2 million immature ovum in](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649ea95503460f94bad353/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
DNA: deoxyribonucleic acid: double-helix containing genetic code.
Chromosomes are coils of DNA that contain segments called genes (units of heredity)
23 pairs of chromosomes from each parent. Each sex cell ends up with 23 chromosomes (meiosis)
though mitosis, the nonsex cells continue to
divide and replicate so that every cell has same DNA.
![Page 10: Chapter 3 Forming a New Life. Fertilization: conception, sperm meet ovum. Zygote: single cell union of sperm and ovum Girls: 2 million immature ovum in](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649ea95503460f94bad353/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Collaborative Gene
Genetic Foundations
• Genes and chromosomes
– Mitosis — cell nucleus duplicates
– Meiosis — cell division forms gametes
– Fertilization — egg and sperm form zygote
– Genetic variability in the population
– X and Y chromosomes determine sex

Nucleus (center of cell) contains
chromosomes and genes Chromosomes are
threadlike structures composed of DNA
molecules
Gene: a segment of DNA (spiraled double chain)
containing the hereditary code

• 22 pairs of chromosomes are not related to sex (autosomes).
• The 23rd pair are sex chromosomes: all ovum chromosomes are x, but sperm may have the x or y chromosome. The y is for males (XY) and the x for females (XX).
• Dominant inheritance: when heterozygous, dominant trait governs.
• Recessive inheritance: expression of a recessive trait, occurs when received two recessive alleles, one from each parent.
![Page 14: Chapter 3 Forming a New Life. Fertilization: conception, sperm meet ovum. Zygote: single cell union of sperm and ovum Girls: 2 million immature ovum in](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649ea95503460f94bad353/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Polygenetic inheritance: pattern of inheritance in which multiple genes at different sites on chromosomes affect a complex trait
• • Multifactorial transmission: comb of
genetics and environmental factors produce certain complex traits
• • Phenotype: observable characteristics of a
person• one from each parent.

• Genotype: genetic make-up of a person, containing both expressed and unexpressed characteristics
• Defects: both parents give recessive gene for the abnormality; also if dominant parent’s DNA has it
• Mutations: spontaneous or environmentally induced

• Genotype: genetic make-up of a person, containing both expressed and unexpressed characteristics
• Defects: both parents give recessive gene for the abnormality; also if dominant parent’s DNA has it
• Mutations: spontaneous or environmentally induced
Problems• Genetic and environmental causes; if has genetic
marker, environment may trigger. May also trigger without environment. (traits, personality, intellectual, obesity, diabetes)

• Fertilization to two weeks: germinal stage, zygote divides and becomes complex, implanted into uterus wall- formally beginning pregnancy.
• (see pages 86-87 for development stages)

Germinal Conception to 2 weeks
Embryonic 2 to 8 weeks
Fetal 8 weeks to birth

Embryonic stage (2-8 weeks)• Major bodily systems develop• Spontaneous abortion: usually due to
chromosomal abnormalities, severely defective embryos. Occurs usually without mother aware (50% end in miscarriage; 15% known to mother)
Fetal Stage (8-birth)• Appearance of bone cells; rapid growth;
more complex organ development; begin to interact with environment; learn and remember (sound, voices)

Hazards to Prenatal Development
• Teratogen: agent causing birth defects
• Severity of damage affected by– Dose
– Genetic susceptibility
– Time of exposure
• Effects of prescription and nonprescription drugs
Prenatal Development

Teratogen: is a substance that can cross the placental barrier and harm the child. Alcohol and tobacco are perhaps the most common and damaging. Mercury, landfills, lead paint
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS): combo of retarded growth, face and body malformations, disorders of the nervous system. ADHD symptoms, attention, distractibility, learning difficulties, memory and mood impairment.
Nicotine: low birth weight, miscarriage, retardation, still birth, small head syndrome, medical problems.

Marijuana: birth defects, low birth weight, ADHD, learning problems, visual and perceptual skills deficit, impulsivity- impacts frontal lobe.
Cocaine: spontaneous abortion, delayed growth, premature labor. Low birth weight, birth defects, neurological deficits; acute withdrawal following birth; overall, significant neurological deficits.

HIV/AIDS: likely to spread it to fetus. Maternal Illnesses: colds, STDs, general
medical problems. Maternal Stress: wide psychological
disorders, deformities. Negative emotional/behavioral
Over 35: for the mother-diabetes, high BP,
severe bleeding. Child- premature birth, birth defects, retarded growth.

Assessing the Newborn
• Apgar Scale: heart, reflexes, and color
• Brazelton Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale (BNBAS)– A sensitive index of neurological competence
– Four categories in global terms
• Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Network Neurobehavioral Scale (NNNS)– Analysis of behavior, neurological and stress
responses, and regulatory capacities

Bonding
• Needs to occur shortly after birth
• Early emotional attachments may create healthy interactions after leaving hospital
• Rooming-in arrangements offered
• Massages and tactile stimulation for premature infants affect development
Birth

Recommended now: Comfort your baby: • comfort baby when they cry• feed them when they are hungry• play with them when they are awake• “spoil” them as much as you can! (studies
show that baby must learn that they have an effect on their environment, and therefore control over their own experience. Important for cognitive and social development
• babies need to know that they can make things happen
• being responsive to baby
