QUESTION 3 Answer the fоllоwing true оr fаlse questions:

Elаbоrаte оn hоw the plаcenta's production of neuroendocrine hormones—such as corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and proopiomelanocortin (POMC) derivatives—interacts with both fetal and maternal HPA axes to regulate the timing of parturition. Assess the mechanisms by which placental CRH may establish a positive feedback loop with fetal cortisol production, and analyze the potential consequences of this interplay under physiological stress or pathological conditions (e.g., preeclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction) on the initiation of labor across different species.  Include in your discussion the differential expression of CRH receptors, the role of CRH-binding protein in modulating CRH activity, and how these factors may lead to species-specific differences in gestational length and labor onset. Consider the impact of maternal and fetal stress responses on placental hormone production and subsequent effects on pregnancy outcomes.
