www.psychexamreview.com In this video I discuss prenatal development from conception until birth. This can be divided into the germinal stage, embryonic stage, and fetal stage. Conception occurs when a sperm cell and egg cell join to create a zygote, which then travels down the fallopian tube and attaches to the uterus. This then develops into an embryo with a heart and the beginnings of a body, then a fetus as it develops a skeleton and muscles. The womb environment can have important influences on development, particularly in the case of the negative effects of teratogens like lead, mercury, viruses, or drugs. Learning also begins to occur before birth, such as a fetus learning to recognize the sound of the mother's voice. Don’t forget to subscribe to the channel to see future videos!
