After fertilization, the successful development of a mature, full-term fetus depends on A. The release of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) by the developing placenta AND the production of estrogen and progesterone by the placental tissues B. the release of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) by the developing placenta C. maintenance of the corpus luteum for all 9 months D. all of these E. the production of estrogen and progesterone by the placental tissues

The correct option is A (The release of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) by the developing placenta AND the production of estrogen and progesterone by the placental tissues).

Explanation:

The developing placenta release Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) during pregnancy. What this hormone does is tell the body (corpus luteum) to produce progesterone to maintain the pregnancy. The presence of Human chorionic gonadotropin is a sign of pregnancy, meaning successful fertilization had happened, and implantation of the embryo had occurred too, preventing another cycle of menstruation.

The successful development of a mature, full-term fetus also depends on estrogen which during pregnancy aids the formation of blood vessels and also aids fetal maturation. While progesterone is a hormone when released during pregnancy helps maintain a healthy pregnancy.
