ALBORES Formación de una nueva vida


The basic unit of heredity is the gene, which is made of DNA. DNA carries the biological instructions that govern bodily functions and determine inherited characteristics. Each gene is located by function on a specific position on a chromosome.

At conception each normal human being receives 23 chromosomes from each parent; 22 autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes.

Each woman contributes an x sex chromosome and each man may contribute either an x or a y chromosome. If a y chromosome is donated, the child will be male, and if an x chromosome is donated by the father, the child will be female. It is the father who determines the sex of the child.

The simplest patterns of genetic transmission are dominant and recessive inheritance.


Birth defects and diseases are generally transmitted through simple dominant, recessive, or sex-linked inheritance or by genome imprinting.



Prenatal development is a genetically directed process that occurs in three stages.

The germinal stage includes the first two weeks of development after conception. It is characterized by rapid cell division, increasing complexity and differentiation, and implantation on the wall of the uterus.

The embryonic stage lasts from 2 to 8 weeks and is characterized by rapid growth and development of major body systems and organs.

The fetal stage is the final stage of gestation from 8 weeks until the birth of the baby. It is characterized by increased detail of body parts and greatly enlarged body size.

¿Cómo se determina el sexo?

Sordomudez congénita
Hemeralopía (ceguera nocturna)
Tay-Sachs (deterioro del sistema nervioso)





Herencia Ligada al Sexo

Generalmente trasmitido por el cromosoma x de la madre, quien es portadora pero no la padece. Si el padre la padece no la trasmite a sus hijos varones. (La Hemofilia-El Daltonismo)






Valoración e intervención prenatal
Ultrasound is a non-invasive technique that uses sound waves programmed into a computer to visualize the baby, the placenta, and small details such as the chambers and valves of the heart. It is the most common and least expensive of fetal assessment tools.


Amniocentesis involves withdrawing some of the amniotic fluid from the mother via a needleThe fluid is then used to view the chromosomes of the baby (from cells that are shed in the fluid) and also to determine the maturity of the baby’s lungs in cases of premature labor that cannot be stopped. Analysis of the amniotic fluid takes a few days, whereas ultrasound gives immediate results.
