Why does a fetus head grow so fast?

Answer 1

Because most of the time their brain size is larger than most people thus greater connnections can be made which is very similar to that of a cro magnon. Their heads are actually normal sized and the people you see everyday have shrunken heads due to years of undersidrable traits getting past down including smaller brain size.

Answer 2

This is because human's brains are disproportionately large heads if we compare them with other primates. Human beings are born with a heads that are very advanced in development if compared with the rest of their bodies, that's why a baby's head must be huge, in order to accommodate the brain, which will reach half of its adult size by when the baby reaches 9 months of age.

Answer 3

Most babies are born head first (called the fetal or cephalic position) because that is how most babies settle in the uterus. Having a baby breech means having them the opposite direction and can really cause problems during the labor, so having a baby head first in normal delivery is the best thing that could happen. About 97% of babies are born head first, without complications.

Answer 4

Normally assumes a head down presentation because of the weight of the baby's head.

Answer 5

The skull cannot fuse and be solid until the brain is finished growing. So it has many joints in it that allow the bones to grow to cover the brain.

Answer 6

some babies are born head first, and others are born bottom first. the baby turns, and when the doctors deliver him/her, he tells the mammy (thats screaming in pain) your baby is "breached".
