Mental retardation could be the result of a number of things. These include an accident that resulted in physical damage to the baby's brain despite the cushioning effect of the fluid in the womb, chemical substances exchanged between the mother and the embryo through the placenta. Sometimes mental retardation is inherited from one or both parents through the genes or genetic damage occurs as cells divide in the early stages of pregnancy.
What else can I help you with?
What would happen to the embyro in gestation?
The embryo will develop into a foetus in the womb.
Does fertlisation happen inside the womb?
it doesn't happen in the womb it happens in the oviduct/fallopian tube. Fertilization happens when a haploid sperm cell fuses with a haploid egg cell and forms a diploid zygote cell
How does a fetus get to the womb?
the sperm finds a fertile egg and makes a baby
Can a fetus get cancer in the womb?
Yes it does happen, i was born with a 6oz tumor on my kideny.
What will happen if the fetus is already inside the womb?
It will grow and develop until fully formed.
What is mental recognition?
mental recognition is a ability to recognized previous encountered events, object ,people. in my report the infants recognized to their mind what they have heard before when they are in womb. so when i played the classical music they have a automatic response to the music because of their mental recognition.
What would happen if a women was developing triplets in her womb?
your belly will grow as bigger than a single child
If maidens did not want to marry were they spanked?
No but fear of rearing or carrying the child in womb makes them to think not to get married.
Is there any relationship with the gender of the baby when the pregnancy happen on mother's right womb like right for male or left womb for female?
The overwhelming majority of women only have one womb, so the concept of left vs right doesn't make any sense, and can't influence the gender of the child.
When a sperm hangs on the womb then let go is it the mans fault or the ladies for it to happen?
It's mens foult. Ofc its his sperm.
How are some people born retarded?
There are many reasons this happens. Some of the more common causes of mental retardation, which can range from mild to severe, are: * If the mother drinks, smokes, takes illegal drugs (and some prescription drugs) while pregnant, it can cause mental retardation. * If the baby suffers oxygen deprivation during birth, that can also lead to brain damage. For example, if the umbilical cord becomes wrapped around the baby's neck during birth, it cuts off the baby's air supply, and can result in brain damage, or even death. * Another cause of oxygen deprivation is meconium aspiration. Meconium is the first bowel movement of a baby, and if it occurs in the womb, the baby can aspirate (breathe it into his lungs) it, resulting in decreased oxygen intake. This rarely occurs unless the baby is overdue by at least two weeks, but is life threatening when it does happen. * Hydrocephalus (or water on the brain) can also cause mental retardation. This, however, is relatively rare, and sometimes occurs in association with spina bifida (a disorder of the spine). In many cases, it can be surgically treated by drilling a small hole in the skull, and inserting a small tube to allow the excess fluid to drain. In most cases, if this condition is diagnosed and treated early enough, the chances of normal and mental physical development are good. * Down's Syndrome, which affects almost 2% of all babies born, is also a cause of mental retardation. In the normal human body, all cells, except egg and sperm cells, have 46 chromosomes each. When a child is born with 47 chromosomes in each cell, the result is Down's Syndrome. * If the pregnancy is a result of first degree incest (father and daughter, sister and brother), the risk of retardation is much greater than it would be had the mother not been related to the baby's father. Second degree incest (uncle and niece, first cousin and first cousin) can also sometimes result in mental retardation, but usually not as severe as first degree incest. * If the mother is age 40 or older, the risk of mental retardation is greater than that of a child born to a mother of a younger age.
Why is DNA important during cell division?
Cells divide into two parts with sets of DNA. If divided wrong, would cause a physical or mental impurity as in mental retardation, birth defects, etc. When cells multiply in the womb it duplicates the DNA into each cell. All cells have the same DNA. For example, your hair cells only use the DNA reading "make hair brown," but actually, also contains the skin DNA saying "make skin light-colored." DNA has everything to do with cell division and multiplication, in every way. Hope this helps. I'm 13, Lexy.
