  • Human placental lactogen (hPL) is a hormone produced by the placenta, the organ that develops during pregnancy to help feed the growing baby. This hormone breaks down fats from the mother to provide fuel for the growing baby. 
  • Foetus shows movements for the first time during 16-25 weeks.
  • Signal for parturition comes from fully developed foetus and placenta.
  • The heart forms from an embryonic tissue called mesoderm around 18 to 19 days after fertilization.
