Answer:

PLATO:

In an ectopic pregnancy, a fertilized egg develops in a region other than the uterus. These areas are not designed to expand, like the uterus, so the growing embryo will put stress on the tissue, causing pain. Also, model 2 shows that the female reproductive system is close to the lower part of the digestive system (near the rectum in the model). The growing embryo could press against these organs and tissues, causing digestive distress.

Answer:

See explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial days and even weeks of pregnancy may happen without a woman being aware of the pregnancy. Even though the baby grows quickly, it starts out as just a fertilized egg. So it takes a while to be noticed. And there is plenty of room at first.

But with an ectopic pregnancy, the baby attaches, instead of in the uterus, outside of the uterus. In most cases, the baby attaches inside the fallopian tube. Outside of the uterus is not designed to provide support and space for the baby. As growth occurs, it can cause severe problems. This is dangerous and can cause bleeding, pain, and possibly shock of the woman's condition is not identified and treated.

Hope this helps! Have an awesome day!! :-)
