The debate between continuity vs. stages is the development a gradual, continuous process, like a ski lift moving up a mountain or is it a series of distinctly different like the steps of a staircase. In continuous and gradual stages Genie was able to start talking and expressing what she wanted by point, etc. the debate between stability vs. change is will the person you think of as the “real” you still be there in 2050 or will that person change dramatically as you move through adulthood? Genie was able to change to better understand the world around her. The debate between nature vs. nurture is how much of your development is a result of genetics and how much is a result of environment. Genie learned not to talk because she was beaten when she made noise so it came her nature to not talk because her nurture, of being beaten when talking. Victor’s sensitivity to temperature was not as sensitive because he spent most of his life in the outside elements, whether it was raining, cold, or hot.

There is three stages of prenatal development. The first stage is zygote and this is the first two weeks. Cell division and development occur during these two weeks. The next stage is embryo and when the baby starts to developing human organizes and this stages last for two months. The last stage fetus and that is nine weeks to birth. Teratogens are chemicals and viruses that can the embryo or fetus and cause harm. They increase the risk of the baby being born with a birth defect. Some teratogens will increase the risk of having a miscarriage. One type of teratogen is fetal alcohol syndrome and this is when the mother abuses alcohol during pregnancy. This can lead to physical and cognitive
