Due to severe health complications from diabetes, molly's pregnancy had to be terminated during the third month. in what stage of prenatal development did she have the termination?

Molly's pregnancy had to be terminated during the third month due to severe health complications from diabetes. The third month falls in the first-semester stage of prenatal development where the baby is within the 9-13 weeks of development. At this stage, the baby is already about 2.5 inches long (6.3 centimeters) and weighs more than half an ounce (over 14 grams). Most of the baby’s internal systems are fully formed and working also. However, since the presence of diabetes in pregnancy is very risky and the disease worsens rapidly during pregnancy, it is not safe for both the mother and child, thus some resort to termination of pregnancy on the first semester.  

answer:

convection currents in the magma drive plate tectonics. heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the earth creates magma (molten rock) in the aesthenosphere. the aesthenosphere (70 ~ 250 km) is part of the mantle, the middle sphere of the earth that extends to 2900 km.
