Answer 1

In the second week of pregnancy, the correct event is:

an organ unique to pregnancy that makes pregnancy hormones forms.

This refers to the formation of the placenta, which begins to develop around this time and produces important hormones to support the pregnancy. The other options relate to earlier or later stages of pregnancy.
