Newborns have innate abilities for finding nourishment‚ avoiding harmful situations‚ and interacting with others - all of which are genetically designed to facilitate survival. From the moment of conception to the nine-month prenatal period‚ the zygote becomes an embryo and then a fetus. Teratogens taken in by the mother that can cause damage to the developing fetus.

The Cell Cycle A eukaryotic cell cannot divide into two‚ the two into four‚ etc. unless two processes alternate: doubling of its genome (DNA) in S phase (synthesis phase) of the cell cycle; halving of that genome during mitosis (M phase). The period between M and S is called G1; that between S and M is G2. So‚ the cell cycle consists of: G1 = growth and preparation of the chromosomes for replication; S = synthesis of DNA [see DNA Replication] and duplication of the centrosome; G2

Current Status of IVF Many individuals are looking to alternatives in child bearing‚ In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) being one of the most popular. IVF in the United States is a costly procedure. It can cost up to $12‚000 for one attempt and that is not adding the cost of additional attempts should the first one fail. There are individuals who are in debt for $60‚000 in attempting to get pregnant through IVF. Fertility treatments are now a hot commodity‚ especially in the global marketplace

Mitosis and Meiosis I. These two processes function to pass chromosomes from one cellular generation to the next in a very carefully controlled manner. II. Mitosis and Meiosis are both correctly described as nuclear division; they are never correctly called cell division‚ or any kind of reproduction. It is possible (and often quite normal) for nuclei to divide when cells don’t. And organisms reproduce; nuclei and cells divide. III. Mitosis A. Mitosis is the division of a nucleus
