  2. Human embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_embryonic_development

    Human embryonic development covers the first eight weeks of development, which have 23 stages, called Carnegie stages. At the beginning of the ninth week, the embryo is termed a fetus (spelled "foetus" in British English). In comparison to the embryo, the fetus has more recognizable external features and a more complete set of developing organs.

  3. Timeline of human prenatal development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_human_prenatal...

    Gestational age: 8 weeks and 0 days until 8 weeks and 6 days old. 57–63 days from last menstruation. Embryonic age: Week nr 7. 6 weeks old. 43–49 days from fertilization. The embryo measures 18 mm (3 ⁄ 4 in) in length. Fetal heart tone (the sound of the heart beat) can be heard using doppler. Nipples and hair follicles begin to form.

  4. Fetus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetus

    A human fetus, attached to placenta, at three months gestational age. In humans, the fetal stage starts nine weeks after fertilization. [7] At this time the fetus is typically about 30 millimetres (1 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) in length from crown to rump, and weighs about 8 grams. [7] The head makes up nearly half of the size of the fetus. [8]

  5. Prenatal development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prenatal_development

    The first ten weeks of gestational age is the period of embryogenesis and together with the first three weeks of prenatal development make up the first trimester of pregnancy. From the 10th week of gestation (8th week of development), the developing embryo is called a fetus.

  6. Crown-rump length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown-rump_length

    An ultrasound showing an embryo measured to have a crown-rump length of 1.67 cm and estimated to have a gestational age of 8 weeks and 1 day. Crown-rump length (CRL) is the measurement of the length of human embryos and fetuses from the top of the head (crown) to the bottom of the buttocks (rump).

  7. Carnegie stages - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnegie_stages

    In embryology, Carnegie stages are a standardized system of 23 stages used to provide a unified developmental chronology of the vertebrate embryo.. The stages are delineated through the development of structures, not by size or the number of days of development, and so the chronology can vary between species, and to a certain extent between embryos.

  8. Pregnancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pregnancy

    After about ten weeks of gestational age—which is the same as eight weeks after conception—the embryo becomes known as a fetus. [45] At the beginning of the fetal stage, the risk of miscarriage decreases sharply. [46] At this stage, a fetus is about 30 mm (1.2 inches) in length, the heartbeat is seen via ultrasound, and the fetus makes ...

  9. Embryo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo

    Depending on the species, a blastula or blastocyst stage embryo can appear as a ball of cells on top of yolk, or as a hollow sphere of cells surrounding a middle cavity. [8] The embryo's cells continue to divide and increase in number, while molecules within the cells such as RNAs and proteins actively promote key developmental processes such ...
