PERIOD OF PRENATAL DEVELOPMENT
Embryonic Period Occurs 2-8 weeks after conceptionRate increases of cell division, support
systems for the cells form, organs appear Germinal period
Takes place in first 2 weeks after conceptionCreation of zygote (fertilized egg), cell
division attachment of the zygote to the uterine wall

PERIOD OF PRENATAL DEVELOPMENT
Embryonic Period Occurs 2-8 weeks after conceptionRate increases of cell division, support systems
for the cells form, organs appearThe mass of cells attached to the uterine wall
forms three layers and is now called the embryo Endoderm – inner layer of cells will develop
into digestive and respiratory systems Ectoderm – outer layer of cells will become the
nervous systems and sensory receptors (ears, nose, eyes and skin)
Mesoderm – middle layer – will develop into the circulatory system, bones, muscle, excretory system and reproductive system
