1. The two environmental maternal factor that I feel make the most impact at this stage are the mother's health and the mother's drug or alcohol use. In this stage ensuring a healthy lifestyle will only increase the baby's chances to be healthy and have good habits when it is born. It is said that once babies are grown enough, they tend to love the foods the mother ate while pregnant. For example, my mother had a lot of coffee during her pregnancies and my, now three year old, brother loves to steal her coffee and drink it. This however is not always a good thing if the mother is using drugs or alcohol. They not all can cause tragic birth defects, but they can cause babies to become addicted to a drug once they are born. That is why I believe the second most important factor is drug and/or alcohol use.

2. Two strategies I can see being helpful to pregnant women that will reduce the negative risks are to immediately seek help for drug or alcohol use if a women suspects or knows that she is pregnant. There are many programs that would be a great help, or to even ask family/friends to help them stay a way from it. Another would be to plan a healthy lifestyle by prepping healthy meals and exercising a few times a week. Friends and family can help with this too. The goal is to ensure that the women want what is best for their baby and to give the baby what it needs to grow healthy and happy.

Please read the metaphoric story below about "The Wild Cats and the Students." The story has eight metaphors about neuron membrane potentials. You will be asked to match each metaphoric term with an actual part of the neuron membrane or its potential. Each correct metaphoric match (what do Wild cats symbolize? etc.),

"The Wild Cats and the Students" One day, a truck load of wild cats escaped from the circus. They congregated right outside of a classroom. They wanted to join the students inside so they started to jump at the closed windows. They jumped and jumped at the windows to no avail because no one would open the windows. The students didn’t want the wild cats inside the classroom. The circus truck came to collect the wild cats and drove up the service road next to the classroom building. In trying to make a U-turn, the driver would back up into the building and bump it. The first bump was not too hard, but it bumped open the spring-loaded windows in our classroom a few inches wide. A couple of wild cats sprang into the classroom, but the teacher was able to catch them and toss them out. Meanwhile, the truck driver was still trying to make a U-turn and was getting frustrated. He drove forward and then backward, and hit the building again, but this time a little harder. The spring-loaded windows bumped open a little wider and a few more wild cats were able to jump inside. The teacher quickly captured them and threw them outside. Now, the truck driver was very frustrated and in his third attempt at a U-turn, he backed the truck into the building very hard. This caused the windows to really fly open so that several wild cats jumped into the classroom before the windows snapped shut again. The students were very upset because they really did not like being around the wild cats. Several of the students ran outside by opening the spring-loaded door. This was all very upsetting to the teacher because the class was now in chaos. The teacher spent several seconds capturing the wild cats and throwing them outside, and then inviting the students to come back inside. Ah, once again, peace returned to the classroom and we returned to our studies, trying to ignore the wild cats outside jumping at the windows again.

In this metaphor, what are/is the: Wild cats? Students? The classroom wall? The windows? The door? The truck hitting the building? The peace returning to the classroom? The teacher?
