Analysis of Case Study: Fetal Abnormality Introduction While a fetus is developing in the womb, there are different perspectives raised regarding what constitutes a moral being at the time. Some argue that a fetus at the stage cannot be considered a moral being because they are not aware of what is taking place while to others; the fetus is already a being because it has life. Different bioethicist theories have also been developed to understand fetus developments and these theories are used…

Potter Stewart once said, “Ethics is knowing the difference between what you have a right to do and what is right to do.” In the article,”Of Headless Mice…and Men” by Charles Krauthammer, it explains how it is unethical for scientists to create human clones for the sole purpose of disemboweling the body for personal needs. These human clones would be human in every form and way, however, a scientist would remove the forebrain. Although the cloning of humans would be promising for people's health…

Many psychologists such as Sigmund Freud, Erik Erikson, John B. Watson, B.F. Skinner, Albert Bandura, Jean Piaget, Bronfenbrenner based their research on child development, as being the environmental backgrounds such as culture and community influences as the direct cause in a child’s physical and cognitive development. Therefore, these theorists over looked the prenatal, perinatal and neonatal environmental influences such as the molecules in a fetus bloodstream before birth, to the climate…

During pregnancy there are a lot of things you don’t know, like how what sperm is a girl and a boy and when you can find out. When you are pregnant there are many stages of fertilization. Which include the first, second, ad third trimester. This happens within the nine months of pregnancy. Sperm meets eggs. During the cycle one or two follicles release an egg and then it goes into the fallopian tube. One sperm will penetrate the egg and mix their genetic material. The sperm and egg contain 23…

For hundreds of years people of all different cultures have attempted to decipher the various mysteries of the human body during pregnancy and birth. As a result, often old wives’ tales were shared during pregnancy and birth as a way of people attempting to share authority and wisdom with those less experienced. However, many of the wives’ tales surrounding pregnancy and birth originated many years ago to simply explain the unexplainable or occurrences that weren’t normal. In addition, besides…

conception (McPherson, 2004). The embryonic stage is when the body basics such as all of the body structures and organs. “About 20 percent of all embryos are aborted spontaneously, most often because of chromosomal abnormalities” (Berger, 2011 pg.95). During the Embryonic stage there are early miscarriages. At the end of the embryonic stage the embryo now has facial structures, external sex organs, the heart development ends and the brain can now signal muscles to…

Abstract This experiment is about the effect of microwave radiation exposure on the percent that radish seeds germinate. The hypothesis in this experiment is if the radish seed is placed in the microwave for 8 minutes, then the percent of germinated seeds would be the lowest out of all the times. This experiment is important because if something happens and radish seeds are exposed to microwave radiation people would be able to know if the radishes would germinate if they knew the time they…

The DRC argues that prenatal testing is the gateway for a new form of discrimination that reduces people to a single unwanted gene. In cases where a potential parent is found to be carrying a particular gene or the fetus itself is seen to possess an unwanted gene, the idea of selective abortion more often than not comes to the fore. Citing Barbara Katz Rothman’s interviews, Suter states that “most counselors would have amniocentesis themselves. More than half would have, or want their…

not pregnant. 7 weeks pregnant development Now your pregnancy is 7 weeks and you have to know it marks the start of a very crucial development as a lot of growth will be taking in your womb.

The brain will grow by a third this week ears are developing on each side of the head while his teeth and palate are forming also too. At this stage, your baby eyes…

produced by the following: 1. Uterine glands • The uterine glands secrete a glycogen-rich product. This secretion of glycogen-rich product takes place after ovulation. The substance being secreted is key for the development and survival of a fetus/embryo. 2. Leydig cells • Leydig cells form and secrete testosterone. The testosterone is secreted in response to the lutenising hormone. Spermatozoa production is promoted by the testosterone secreted. The testosterone being secreted by the Leydig…
