A schematic lateral view depicts an approximately 8-week human embryo with a large cranial region, curved trunk, and developing limb buds. The protruding abdominal stalk represents the forming umbilical cord (UC), which connects the embryo to the placenta to mediate nutrient, gas, and waste exchange. In biological hierarchy, this organismal developmental stage resides within the maternal uterus of Homo sapiens (human). Relevant fields include embryology, developmental biology, anatomy, and obstetrics. At this gestational age (GA), organogenesis is underway, including primordia of the central nervous system (CNS), heart, and musculoskeletal system.
