Answer to Question 1

heritability

Answer to Question 2

Fetal hormones are released from the adrenal pituitary glands. These hormones stimulate the placenta and the uterus to secrete prostaglandins that cause labor contractions by exciting the muscles of the uterus. Later during labor, the mother's pituitary gland releases oxytocin. This hormone will stimulate the stronger contractions that are necessary to expel the baby.
