Immunization, also called vaccination or shots, is an important way to protect an infant's health. Vaccinations can prevent more than a dozen serious diseases. Failure to vaccinate may mean putting children at risk for serious and sometimes fatal diseases.1 Infants
are particularly vulnerable to infections; that is why it is so important to protect them with immunization. Immunizations help prevent the spread of disease and protect infants and toddlers against dangerous complications.1 The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides a
list of diseases that can be prevented with vaccines, as well as the benefits and risks of vaccination. The CDC publishes a schedule of immunizations recommended for infants. These recommendations are approved by the CDC, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American Academy of Family Physicians. The
CDC also offers an immunization schedule that can be customized for each child. Recommended textbook solutions

Terms in this set (39)Which of the following is not a period of prenatal development? Neonatal Neonatal The gestation period is approximately: 120 days. 280 days. The organ systems rudimentarily form during the: pre-embryonic period. embryonic period. Why is the secretion of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) important at the beginning of a pregnancy? The hormone hCG contributes to the formation of the yolk sac, which is the source of the first blood
cells. The hormone hCG stimulates the corpus luteum to continue to secrete estrogen and progesterone and promotes placental development. The series of functional changes that make the sperm fully motile and modify its plasma membrane so that it can fertilize the oocyte are called __________. cleavage capacitation The extraembryonic membrane that contains the embryo and secretes a fluid that protects the embryo is the __________. yolk sac amnion The hollow ball of cells that implants into the uterine wall is called the __________. blastomere blastocyst During the cortical reaction, __________. enzymes are released from the head of the
sperm enzymes are released from vesicles in the oocyte Where does fertilization usually occur? isthmus of the uterine tube ampulla of the uterine tube After fertilization, a zygote rapidly divides to produce small, genetically identical cells known as: pronuclei. blastomeres. Which of the following is NOT a function of amniotic fluid? protects the embryo from trauma provides nutrition for the developing embryo The rearrangement and migration of the cells of the bilaminar embryonic disc forms the trilaminar embryonic disc in a process called: organogenesis. gastrulation.
What does gastrulation accomplish? differentiation of germ layers into organs and organ system formation of the three germ layers The differentiation of the germ layers into organs and organ systems is known as: embryonic
folding. organogenesis. Which germ layer forms the gonads and kidneys? ectoderm mesoderm During which process is exposure to teratogens most devastating for the development of the embryo's organs? gastrulation organogenesis By what week of prenatal development will organogenesis be complete? week 4 week 8 Surfactant production begins, eyebrows and eyelashes appear, and the eyes partially open during the __________ month of pregnancy. third sixth By which period of prenatal development will the placenta be fully formed? embryonic period fetal period What do the umbilical arteries transport? oxygenated blood away from the fetal heart deoxygenated blood away from the fetal heart Which of the following vascular shunts connects the fetal left and right atria? foramen ovale foramen ovale Which of the following fetal vascular shunts bypasses the liver? ductus venosus ductus venosus The last stage of delivery is the __________ stage. parturition placental Which of the following changes does not happen in the maternal body during pregnancy? Increased
respiration rate Increased hematocrit Which cardiovascular changes are NOT typically expected in a pregnant female? decreased hematocrit decreased blood volume The initial stimulus for labor comes from the: maternal ovaries. fetus. A positive feedback mechanism initiates the rhythmic contractions of labor. Determine the hormones involved in this feedback loop. estrogens and progesterone prostaglandins and oxytocin Parturition is also known as: dilation. childbirth. Why is it important to vaccinate infants for certain diseases shortly after birth? Vaccinations are only necessary for infants in underdeveloped countries shortly after birth. Vaccinations allow protection from serious or fatal diseases before their own immune system develops. How does lactation keep up with the high demand of a growing infant? The more the infant suckles, the more milk is produced by positive feedback mechanisms. The more the infant suckles, the more milk is produced by positive feedback mechanisms. Prolactin is to milk __________ as oxytocin is to milk __________. ejection; ejection production; ejection The fluid discharge expelled from the uterus for up to 6 weeks after delivery is called __________. meconium lochia The Apgar score is assigned for several criteria measured at birth. What is NOT measured? grimace defecation Determine the possible genotypes and phenotypes of offspring from a mother with blood type AB and a father with blood type O. 50% of the offspring will have type AB blood with the genotype I A I B and 50% of the offspring will have type O blood with the genotype ii. 50% of the offspring will have type A blood with the genotype I A i and 50% of the offspring will have type B blood with the genotype I B i. The physical manifestation of a trait is called the __________. allele phenotype If two alleles code for the same trait (such as blond hair), they are said to be: autologous. homozygous. Predict the possibility of an offspring with a widow's peak, a dominant inherited trait affecting the hairline, when both parents are heterozygous for the trait. 75% of
the offspring will have a widow's peak. 75% of the offspring will have a widow's peak. Inherited traits controlled by two or more genes are called: multiple alleles. polygenic inheritance. When environmental factors influence gene expression, this is referred to as: multiple alleles. multifactorial inheritance.

HEALTH There are four people in my family: me, my mom, and my two older sisters. My mom adopted all three of us when I was very young. I don't remember my birth parents, so this is the only family I've ever known. Like any other family, we get into arguments sometimes. But we also take care of each other. My sisters help me with homework, and my mom is always there for us. My mom thinks it's important for my sisters and me to be in touch with our Korean heritage. Even though she's not Korean, she learned to make Korean foods for us. Every year we go to the local heritage festival to celebrate our traditions as a family. It makes me feel valued to know that Mom respects our heritage and doesn't want us to change. The author mentions arguments to show that (a) his family is not healthy. (b) he gets along with his mother but not with his sisters. (c) his family is supportive and caring. (d) his family is much like any other. Verified answer
