FETUS
Transcript: bpm The umbilical cord is essential for any developing fetus's survival. It has two arteries and a vein that supplies the fetus with oxygenated and nutrient-rich blood from the placenta! The mother gains nutrients from the food she consumes which the fetus, like a blood-sucking parasite, takes for itself! SCIENCE!!! The Eyes of the Human-Fetus Cake Biology Human fetuses (Feti? Fetice?) begin to develop their eyes 4 weeks after pregnancy. After 8 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus's retina begins to form. At week 16, the baby can finally sense light! While in the womb, the eyes will be as developed as they can be by week 26. By then, the fetus will have eyelids and the ability to blink! A baby's skin will begin to develop from 5 to 8 weeks after pregnancy. Each layer of the fetus's epidermis (that means skin for all of you "dull" audience members) will be fully developed by 4 months of pregnancy! Now you may be wondering, "Why is your model's skin made of frosting!?" Well, like freshly developed fetus skin, the frosting was made and applied in layers! No, not the Trident chewing gum... Sheets of material that are piled upon one another to cover the surface! gf 62 A Presentation by Christian Ramirez, Tanner Newport, and Michele Tellez Skin Development TCM Well you see, kids see the world in a sweet, bright, and colorful way! What else is sweet, bright, and colorful? M&M's of course! What else could possibly alter the way kids perceive this depressing, cruel, and overall terrible world we all live in? To shield our cake-baby's innocence from society, misogyny and everything else wrong with the human race, we permanently replaced the little fella's eyes with something that couldn't be corrupt by the world's flaws! Fun Fact: the fetus's heart actually pumps deoxygenated and nutrient-deprived blood back into the placenta! The Structure of Infants... and Cakes! We used Twizzlers for our fetus's umbilical. In some cultures, people will actually eat it after their child's birth. So instead of eating an umbilical, we decide to use a Twizzler instead. It actually tastes better. Why Did We Use M&M's For Our Model's Eyes? That Thing That Gives You Your Belly Button.
