In the Womb. In the Womb is a documentary television special miniseries that was premiered on March 6, 2005, on the National Geographic Channel. Originally beginning as a special about human pregnancy (titled Life Before Birth in the UK), the program features the development of embryos in the uterus of various animal species.
Uterus. The uterus (from Latin uterus, pl.: uteri) or womb ( / wuːm /) is the organ in the reproductive system of most female mammals, including humans, that accommodates the embryonic and fetal development of one or more embryos until birth. The uterus is a hormone -responsive sex organ that contains glands in its lining that secrete uterine ...
Weeks 9 to 16 (2 to 3.6 months) 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 ( in) in length from crown to rump, and weighs about 8 grams. [7] The head makes up nearly half of the size of the ...
Studies of the Fetus in the Womb are two coloured annotated sketches by Leonardo da Vinci made in around 1511. [1] The studies correctly depict the human fetus in its proper position inside a dissected uterus. [2] Leonardo depicted the uterus with one chamber, in contrast to theories that the uterus had multiple chambers which many believed ...
Human embryonic development or human embryogenesis is the development and formation of the human embryo. It is characterised by the processes of cell division and cellular differentiation of the embryo that occurs during the early stages of development. In biological terms, the development of the human body entails growth from a one-celled ...
The embryological origin of the mouth and anus is an important characteristic, and forms the morphological basis for separating bilaterian animals into two natural groupings: the protostomes and deuterostomes . In animals at least as complex as an earthworm, a dent forms in one side of the early, spheroidal embryo.
Implantation (embryology) Implantation, also known as nidation, [1] is the stage in the mammalian embryonic development in which the blastocyst hatches, attaches, adheres, and invades into the endometrium of the female's uterus. [2] Implantation is the first stage of gestation, and, when successful, the female is considered to be pregnant. [3]
Prenatal development (from Latin natalis 'relating to birth') involves the development of the embryo and of the fetus during a viviparous animal 's gestation. Prenatal development starts with fertilization, in the germinal stage of embryonic development, and continues in fetal development until birth . In human pregnancy, prenatal development ...
