You are interested in testing whether fetuses, at 34-weeks gestation, can tell the difference between French and Arabic. You play a three-minute audio clip of a French-speaker and notice that fetal movements decrease by the end of the three-minutes. You then play a three-minute clip of an Arabic-speaker and observe that fetal movements stay the same or continue to decrease when you start to play the new clip. You conclude that: A) The fetus dishabituated; it likely CANNOT tell the difference between French and Arabic B) The fetus habituated; there is no evidence that the fetus can tell the difference between French and Arabic. C) The fetus dishabituated; it likely CAN tell the difference between French and Arabic D) The fetus habituated; another measurement, such as fetal heartrate, is necessary to determine whether dishabituation also occurred.

Some expensive home pregnancy tests claim to detect hCG as early as 5 days after conception ( when hCG are barely there). With the knowledge of how pregnancy tests work, please describe how a pregnancy test manufacturer could create such ultra sensitive test?

Some Statements Related to Monitoring Fetal Development Small portable ultrasound machines should be banned in countries that promote female feticide. Chorionic villus sampling allows mothers to decide if they would like to terminate their pregnancy if the baby has any genetic disorders. Prenatal diagnostic procedures such as amniocentesis create negative attitudes toward genetic disabilities such as Down syndrome. Prenatal testings can alleviate the burden on the Alberta health care. Match each statement numbered above with the perspective it exemplifies given below.

Ms. Simons, Ms. Simpson, and Ms. Simple all entered the same hospital and gave birth to baby girls on the same day, and all three babies were taken to the nursery to receive care. Someone later claimed that the hospital mixed up the babies. As a hospital administrator, it is your job to make sure that each pair of parents has the correct baby, so you order blood typing to be done on all the parents and all the babies. Here are the results: Finish the chart giving each individual’s probable genotype and possible gametes and determine which baby belongs to which couple.
