Human Development Discussion
Description
or this discussion board post, I want you to first think about teratogens broadly, then we will focus in on one specific type (i.e., alcohol). To begin, think about how we may rely on various chemicals to solve everyday problems and how that results in us living in a world in which potential teratogens are becoming more abundant.
- Visit a grocery store or simply wander around your house and look at the warning labels found on the following types of items: vitamin supplements containing iron, cleaning agents, adhesives (e.g., glue), makeup products, and alcoholic beverages.
- What are 2 items you found that are obvious teratogens? What about those items are teratogens (like what makes them dangerous)?
- What are 2 items you found that were more unexpected teratogens? What about those items are teratogens (like what makes them dangerous)?
- Now, let’s think more specifically about the influence of alcohol and fetal alcohol syndrome.
- Take the following quiz: http://come-over.to/multiplechoice/fasquiz1.htm

- What surprised you the most about a question or questions? Why was this surprising?
