A

Start/EndBegins when a sperm fertilises an egg to form a complete cell called a zygoteEnds at birthKey Characteristics Prenatal stage continues until birthIt is characterised by the development of the body’s organs and structuresThe unborn baby goes from being a single celled zygote to consisting of more than 200 billion cells at birth and weighing 3.5kgThis stage of the lifespan has the fastest growth and is the most vulnerable stage of the lifespan

Q

Examples of development in the foetal stage

A

The main goal of the foetus is to increase in size. Testes and ovaries (sex organs) are formed. Organs start to function e.g. digestive system. Bones begin to ossify (harden). Brain develops and can perform basic functions to sustain life
