Document Summary
Psychology 2000 section 2 study guide for second examination. While i attempted to make it complete, it is not meant to be all inclusive. It was not designed to be the sole aid for studying for the examination. This can not replace class attendance and reading the chapters. Know the prenatal development stages: zygote, germinal, embryonic and fetal stages. What are their general periods of time (i am not going to get specific here). What are teratogens (give examples) and what are their effects on the developing human and which stages of development are certain types likely to cause the developmental disorders we covered. Stages of prenatal development: zygote fertilized egg. It takes the zygote about 2 weeks to travel from fallopian tubes to womb. Most zygotes fail to achieve successful implantation: germinal period the period in prenatal development from conception to implantation of the fertilized egg in the wall of the uterus.
