The villi begin to branch and contain blood vessels of the embryo. Other villi, called terminal or free villi, exchange nutrients. The embryo is joined to the trophoblastic shell by a narrow connecting stalk that develops into the umbilical cord to attach the placenta to the embryo.
Jewish traditions teach that the luz is the bone from which the body will be rebuilt at the time of resurrection, and share the idea that this bone does not decay. [2] Rabbi Shraga Simmons teaches that destruction of this bone by cremation could prevent resurrection. [3] Interpretations disagree as to where in the spine the luz is located.
These nerves form a network of nerves that lies over the heart called the cardiac plexus. [8] [33] The vagus nerve is a long, wandering nerve that emerges from the brainstem and provides parasympathetic stimulation to a large number of organs in the thorax and abdomen, including the heart. [35]
It is composed of 270 bones at the time of birth, [2] but later decreases to 206: 80 bones in the axial skeleton and 126 bones in the appendicular skeleton. 172 of 206 bones are part of a pair and the remaining 34 are unpaired. [3] Many small accessory bones, such as sesamoid bones, are not included in this.
The chorionic villi are at first small and non-vascular. 13–15 days: trophoblast only [1] Secondary: The villi increase in size and ramify, while the mesoderm grows into them. 16–21 days: trophoblast and mesoderm [1] Tertiary: Branches of the umbilical artery and umbilical vein grow into the mesoderm, and in this way the chorionic villi are ...
The first is the foramen ovale (the valve present between them called eustachian valve) which shunts blood from the right atrium to the left atrium. The second is the ductus arteriosus which shunts blood from the pulmonary artery (which, after birth, carries blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs) to the descending aorta.

Stereocilia (or stereovilli or villi) are non-motile apical cell modifications. They are distinct from cilia and microvilli , but are closely related to microvilli. They form single "finger-like" projections that may be branched, with normal cell membrane characteristics.
