Embryo
From the time a fertilized egg is implanted in a mother's uterus until about the eighth week of pregnancy, the developing organism is called an embryo.
The term that describes a developing offspring after the first eight weeks of human pregnancy is "fetus." During this stage, the major structures and organs have formed, and the fetus continues to grow and develop until birth. The fetal stage lasts from the ninth week of pregnancy until delivery.
Gestation for a human embryo typically ends at around 8 weeks of pregnancy, transitioning to the fetal stage. The entire pregnancy lasts about 40 weeks, counted from the first day of the last menstrual period. During the first 8 weeks, the developing organism is referred to as an embryo, after which it is called a fetus until birth.
In the human life cycle, an individual is a fertilized egg, or zygote, for about 1 to 2 weeks. This stage begins at fertilization and lasts until implantation occurs in the uterus, after which the developing organism is referred to as an embryo. The embryonic stage lasts until the end of the eighth week of pregnancy, after which it is called a fetus.
The female organ in which a human develops is the uterus. It is a muscular, hollow organ located in the pelvis, where a fertilized egg implants and grows during pregnancy. The uterus provides nourishment and protection to the developing fetus until birth.
The term "fetus" is typically used to refer to the developing baby from the 9th week of pregnancy until birth.
The uterus is the chamber that houses and nurtures the developing fetus during pregnancy. It provides the necessary environment for the fetus to grow and develop until it is ready for birth.
Animal pregnancy is commonly referred to as gestation. During gestation, the female carries and nourishes the developing offspring in her womb until they are ready to be born.
The first trimester of a new human life includes several key terms: zygote, which is the fertilized egg that forms after the sperm and egg unite; embryo, which refers to the developing organism from implantation until about the end of the eighth week; and fetus, which is the term used after the eighth week until birth, marking significant development and growth.
So they are ready to produce breast milk.
A developing human being before birth is typically referred to as an embryo in the early stages of development (up to 8 weeks) and then as a fetus from around 9 weeks until birth.
When all body organs are present, the developing baby is called a fetus. This stage typically begins around the 9th week of pregnancy and continues until birth.
