Script: Entre las semanas 3 y 4, emerge el plano del cuerpo y se pueden identificar fácilmente el cerebro, la médula espinal y el corazón del embrión junto al saco vitelino.

El rápido crecimiento produce un doblez del relativamente plano embrión. Este proceso incorpora parte del saco vitelino en el revestimiento del aparato digestivo y forma las cavidades del pecho y el abdomen del ser humano en desarrollo.

4 SEMANAS

All ages referenced to fertilization, not last menstrual period.
