Does fetal and adult skull have the same bones?

The fetal skeleton is much softer, it has far more bones which fuse by adulthood. also the proporions are much more different, the skull of a fetus is much big in comparison to its body. obviously the fetal skeleton is much much smaller and is more fraile.as development of the facial area of a human develop, the head becomes much less round (so a fetal skeleton would have a rounder head). the face also becomes more defined and features more noticable. I hope this helps.


Briefly describe how are amniocentesis and chorionic villi sampling are used in genetic screening?

Amniocentesis involves taking a sample of the amniotic fluid and checking the fluid for fetal tissue, metabolites, and other markers that would indicate that there is a problem with fetal development. Fetal genetic testing can be performed on the fetal cells in the amniotic fluid. Chorionic villi sampling essentially involves collecting a specific part of the placenta for genetic analysis. Since the placenta is the same genotype as the fetus it is possible to make a genetic diagnosis of the fetus based on analyzing the placenta. Chorionic villi sampling is less invasive and therefore less likely to cause fetal distress.

Do tunicates and lanceletes have back bones?

No. They are both chordates, which means during embryonic development they have a notochord, the same as vertebrates. This does not persist in tunicates, but it does in lancelets (adults still have a notochord). Neither tunicates or lancelets have a backbone.


Is embryonic stage and the first trimester the same?

The embryonic stage is a part of the first trimester. The first trimester is the first three months of pregnancy and the embryonic period ends around week 8 and it then becomes a fetus.
