Different Page 17 Apply: Nia and Malik, the couple concerned that their baby could have sickle-cell disease, are charting their baby’s life course. Nia, who has always loved to sing, is confident that her baby will be a fantastic musician and imagines a routine of music lessons, rehearsals, and concerts. Malik, a pilot, is just as confident that his child will share his love of flying; he is already planning trips the two of them can take together. What advice might you give to Nia and Malik about factors they are ignoring? (Student Response) Advice to Nia and Malik: While Nia and Malik's aspirations for their child are admirable, they are ignoring the fact that genetics plays a significant role in determining a child's talents and interests. Although children can be influenced by their parents' interests and hobbies, they are not necessarily predetermined to follow the same path. Instead, it is important for them to provide a nurturing and supportive environment where their child can explore their own interests and talents. Page 17 Create *YOU DO NOT NEED TO COMPLETE THIS QUESTION* Explanation of niche-picking: Niche-picking refers to the phenomenon where individuals select and create environments that match their genetic predispositions. For example, a child with a natural inclination towards music may seek out opportunities to play instruments or sing, while a child who is more athletic may choose to participate in sports. This interaction between genetics and environment shows that individuals are not passive recipients of their surroundings, but rather they actively shape their environments to suit their own characteristics. Therefore, niche-picking highlights the dynamic interplay between genetics and environment in shaping an individual's development. Page 26 Remember and Understand

Embryo 3. 24 weeks of gestation 4 . basic learning and memory Page 26 Apply: In the last few months before birth, the fetus has some basic perceptual and motor skills; a fetus can hear, see, taste, and move. What are the advantages of having these skills in place months before they’re needed? (Student Response) Advantages of having perceptual and motor skills in place before birth: Having these skills in place before birth allows the fetus to begin to learn and adapt to their environment before they are born. For example, the ability to hear and distinguish sounds may allow the fetus to become familiar with their mother's voice and the sounds of their native language, which may aid in language development after birth. Additionally, the ability to move and practice motor skills in utero may help prepare the fetus for the physical demands of life outside the womb . Page 26 Create *YOU DO NOT NEED TO COMPLETE THIS QUESTION* Comparison of prenatal development before and after the age of viability: Before the age of viability (24 weeks), the major events of prenatal development include the formation of basic body structures and the development of major organ systems. During this time, the embryo is particularly vulnerable to environmental influences such as toxins or nutritional deficiencies that can have lasting effects on development. After the age of viability, the fetus continues to grow and develop, with an increasing focus on maturation and refinement of existing body systems. The fetus also gains new abilities and behaviors, such as the ability to perceive and respond to sensory stimuli and the development of basic learning and memory processes. Overall, the main difference between prenatal development before and after the age of viability is the increasing focus on maturation and refinement of existing structures and abilities.

Page 40 Apply: What would you say to a 45-year-old woman who is eager to become pregnant but is unsure about the risks associated with pregnancy at this age? (Student Response) a 45-year-old woman who is eager to become pregnant but is unsure about the risks associated with pregnancy at this age, I would advise her to consult with her healthcare provider to discuss the potential risks and benefits of pregnancy at her age. Women over 35 are at increased risk for complications such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus. However, with proper medical care and monitoring, many women in their 40s are able to have healthy pregnancies and babies. Page 49 Remember and Understand 1. The baby and the placenta 2. Infant mortality rate 3. Healthy 4. Brain damage Page 49 Apply: Rosario is pregnant with her first child and would like to give birth at home. Her partner is against the idea, claiming that it’s much too risky. What advice would you give them? (Student Response) For Rosario's situation, it is essential to weigh the potential risks and benefits of giving birth at home versus a hospital setting. While some women prefer the comfort and familiarity of home, there may be situations where medical intervention is needed quickly, which may not be possible at home. It is recommended that Rosario and her partner consult with a healthcare provider and a certified nurse-midwife to discuss their options and make an informed decision that is right for them and their baby. Page 49 Create: Explain why some at-risk newborns develop normally but others do not. (Student Response) Regarding the second scenario, the reasons why some at-risk newborns develop normally while others do not can be complex and varied. Factors such as genetic predisposition, environmental influences, and the severity and timing of the risk factor can all play a role. For example, some newborns

may have a genetic predisposition to a certain condition, but the condition only manifests when combined with environmental triggers. Other newborns may have experienced a traumatic event during the prenatal or perinatal period, which can affect their neurological development. It is essential to conduct further research to fully understand the factors that contribute to these outcomes.
