Summary Introduction

To determine:

Which hormonal level drops in a postpartum woman and what are its effects.

Concept introduction:

Postpartum means the time period after the mother has given birth to the newborn. At this time, the mother has to undergo transformative changes like returning to the pre-pregnancy form and to feed the neonate. These postpartum changes occur over the first six weeks after giving birth to the neonate.

Students have asked these similar questions
If you transplant trunk neural crest into the cranial neural crest region of a developing embryo, will you see the donor tissue form cartilage? Does the neural crest only give rise to two cells in the developing embryo, and is essential for lamprey to develop their jaw structure? Does a multipotent neural crest cell that is receiving Wnt signals become a Chromaffin cell?
Using quail and chick embryos, quail-specific antibody and fluorescent tissue-specific antibodies, design an experiment where you investigate the tissues the cranial neural crest can give rise to.  What are four derivatives of the cranial neural crest that you expect to see in the resulting chimeric embryos?
Does the neural crest have to undergo epithelial to mesenchymal transition prior to migration through the developing embryo?  Does the neural crest differentiate into different cell types based on their axial position along the anterior and posterior axis?
