During Pregnancy, the mother’s womb provided the baby’s first environment and it affects development in many ways. Substances called teratogens can affect the developing of the embryo or fetus. The word teratogen comes from two green roots- “teras” meaning monster and “gen” meaning source or orgins. Thus, the word teratogen literally means “source of monsters.” Many expecting mothers, including teenage mothers do not understand the influences different teratogens may have on a developing fetus. For this assignment you will submit a 5 page paper explaining the effects of 1 specific teratogen which is ANTIBIOTICS.
