madre

Mother

Madre

The mother from a biological perspective is the living being that from the moment of fertilization assumes this condition. The maternal filial bond originates from the moment of the fecundation itself, where the mother's body has different characteristics than those maintained in a state of non-conception. Consequently, embryonic development is fundamentally based on the interaction of the mother and the new cell that forms part of it, eventually it will be a life independent of itself. In this way, a complex process of physiological communication for the choice of genetic peculiarities is formed in the maternal body; A signaling pathway characterized by a genetic selection process inherent in the communication that the mother transmits into the zygote. In the case of mammals like the human being, the mother gestates her child in the womb until the fetus is sufficiently developed to be born. The mother goes into labor and gives birth. La madre desde una perspectiva biológica es el ser vivo que desde el momento de la fecundación asume esta condición.  El vínculo materno filial tiene origen desde el momento de la fecundación misma, donde el cuerpo de la madre posee características diferentes a las que mantenía en un estado de no concepción. Por consiguiente, el desarrollo embrionario fundamentalmente se basa en la interacción de la madre y la nueva célula que formando parte de ella, eventualmente será una vida independiente a ella misma. De esta manera, del cuerpo materno se conforma un complejo proceso de comunicación fisiológica para la elección de las particularidades genéticas; una vía de señalización caracterizada por un proceso de selección genética inherente a la comunicación que la madre transmite hacia el interior del cigoto. En el caso de los mamíferos como el ser humano, la madre gesta a su hijo en la matriz hasta que el feto esté suficientemente desarrollado para nacer. La madre entra en labor de parto y da a luz.
