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.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

External respiration: CO2 diffuses into the blood

Explanation:

External respiration is also called the pulmonary gas exchange. It refers to the diffusion of O2 from the air in the alveoli of the lungs to blood in pulmonary capillaries and diffusion of CO2 in the opposite direction from the capillary blood into the alveolar air. External respiration in the lungs is responsible for oxygenation of deoxygenated blood coming from the right side of the heart. The oxygenated blood is then returned to the left side of the heart.
