Answer:

The three stages of the development of a fetus include the first trimester, second trimester, and the third trimester.

First trimester- the baby is the most vulnerable, up to 25% of pregnancies end in a miscarriage. In the first four weeks, the zygote is still the same size of an apple seed, the spinal cord, central nervous system, digestive system, heart and lungs develop. In a couple weeks, the zygote becomes an embryo with moving legs and arms, a beating heart, and developing organs and buds that eventually become teeth. Fingerprints and sweat glands have developed. The placenta develops in this time. At eight weeks, the embryo is now a fetus and is the size of a grape. The embryonic tail is gone, the hands can bend at the wrist and the feet no longer look webbed.

Second Trimester- The chance of miscarriage is gone. At fourteen weeks, red blood cells begin to form in the spleen. Sixteen weeks, fingernails, toenails, hair, eyelashes, and eyebrows have formed. Can feel the baby kick because it is bigger. Fifteen weeks, the skeleton begins to harden. Twenty weeks, you can hear the heartbeat with a stethoscope and the circulatory system is functioning. Twenty two weeks, hair called lanugo covers the body. Twenty three weeks, the reproductive parts have developed. By the end of the second trimester, the fetus is eleven to fourteen inches long, has sleep-wake cycles, senses have developed, can recognize voices and eyelids can open.

Third Trimester- Babies born at twenty eight weeks have a 90% chance of survival, but aren't full term until thirty seven weeks. At twenty nine weeks, the skeleton is fully developed. Thirty two, it responds to sound, the brain continues to develop, lanugo hair falls off. Thirty three, pupils are responsive to light. Thirty five, the Uterus protective skin called Vernix Caseosa begins to thicken in preparation for birth.

After recording the blood pressure of a client, the primary health care provider confirms a diagnosis of pheochromocytoma. what
Anna007 [38]
I believe increased blood pressure indicates the presence pf pheochromocytoma. The increased blood pressure could be due to the increased production of catecholamines, indicating a lack of balance in the endocrine.  Pheochromocytoma is a neuroendocrine tumor of the medulla of the adrenal glands or extra-adrenal chromaffin tissue that failed to involute after birth, that secretes high amounts of catecholamines (norepinephrine or epinephrine).

Answer:

B) lighting a match

Explanation:

a chemical change is a chemical reaction involving the rearrangement of atoms. While a physical change can often be reversed, a chemically change typically cannot.

Always remember, if something is being lit on fire then it is a chemical change, since fire breaks the bonds in between the atoms.

Freezing water is a physical change because it can be reversed and does not alter the substance, which is water. a change in state i always a physical change

tearing up a piece of paper is a physical change since nothing on a molecular level has changed. its still paper.

Dissolving sugar in water is a <em>homogenous mixture</em>, meaning that it looks uniform without, however it is still only sugar and water, so it is a physical change.
