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.

What one trait do only plants, algae and Cyanobacteria have in common?
bogdanovich [222]
Cyanobacteria are oxygenic photosynthetic bacteria. They harvest the sun's energy, absorb carbon dioxide, and emit oxygen. Like plants and algae, cyanobacteria contain chlorophyll and convert carbon dioxide to sugar through carbon fixation. Unlike eukaryotic plants and algae, cyanobacteria are prokaryotic organisms.

The option A represents the complete opposite of "high-gc gram-positive bacteria". High GC content means that this bacteria have more guanine ans more cytosine than the other base pairs- adenine–thymine. This means all the other options are correct.
