Answer:

a. heart development.

Explanation:

As the third week of fetal development starts, the process of formation of blood vessels begins. Also, the splanchnic mesoderm in the head end of the embryo forms heart on days 18 and 19. Since it develops heart, this part of the mesodermal cells is called the cardiogenic area. The underlying endoderm sends the induction signals to these mesodermal cells to form a pair of endocardial tubes that gradually develop into a single primitive heart tube.

This primitive heart begins to beat by the end of the third week of development. Therefore, any drug that affects fetal development during the first 20 days of the pregnancy might affect the development of the heart.

the interaction generated by human intervention to protect the gray wolf population in the northwestern united states can be def
lina2011 [118]
Commensalism is defined as a relationship between two species where one has certain benefits from the relation and the other is unaffected. So, in this case, it is hard to determine what kind of relationship the gray wolf  and human populations have because when people intervene to help protect a species they are officially unaffected, they do not lose or gain anything, but the gray wolf is one of the key species in their ecosystem, so protecting them is beneficial for the ecosystem, therefore can have numerous positive effects on human-environment too.
