Is the prenatal environment that important??
‐ YES! There are many factors that can negatively impact the developing person.
‐ Teratogens are substances that can lead to birth defects or even death during the prenatal period.

Think on your own…
What are some factors that could influence
prenatal development?
![Page 10: 1 MODULE OBJECTIVE: What factors influence prenatal development? Chapter 9- Life Span Development I](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649e6b5503460f94b6966b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Teratogens‐ Drugs (street or over the counter)‐ Alcohol ‐ Cigarettes ‐ Disease‐ Poor nutrition‐ Stressors‐ Chemicals
‐ Almost anything can impact a developing fetus

But my Mom smoked when she was pregnant with me and I’m fine!
‐ Students often ask why the effects of different teratogens have such different effects on an individual.
Think on your own…Why do we see such different
effects of teratogens?

It’s all about timing…‐ The effect of a teratogen is very personal
because the impact depends on the timing of exposure.
‐ Critical period is the time when a particular organ or body part is the most susceptible to damage
‐ Different teratogens can cause damage at different times during development and each body structure has its own critical period

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)
‐ This syndrome is caused by a mother drinking excessive amounts of alcohol during pregnancy.
‐Heavy drinking during the second trimester seems to cause more features of FAS, particularly in weeks 10-20.

What does FAS look like?
Think on your own…
Do these child have any physical similarities?
Look at their faces, do they look alike in any way?

What did you see?
‐ Facial features tend to be flattened, ears are often low-set and people with FAS have a “Down syndrome-like” appearance

Facial abnormalities are an obvious indicator of FAS
‐ Small head circumference
‐ Small, widely-spaced eyes
‐ Prolongation of the fold of the upper eyelid
‐ A short, upturned nose
‐ Flat mid-face, lowered nasal bridge
‐ Thin upper lip

Approximately 10,000 infants are born each year with physical or cognitive disabilities associated
with maternal drinking (Jacobson, 1997).
‐ Every 1 in 750 births!

Think on your own…
How does the presence of alcohol in the fetuses
bloodstream effect that developing brain?
