The period of development of a fertilized egg until birth, about 38 weeks in humans
Real World Example
Imagine planning a long road trip where every detail, from the route to the snacks, needs to be carefully prepared. Just like organizing this journey, pregnancy involves a meticulous process where a fertilized egg develops over approximately 38 weeks, akin to planning and executing each stage of your trip until you reach your destination. In this analogy, the fertilized egg is like the initial travel plan, the 38-week development period represents the journey itself with all its stages, and birth is the final destination, marking the successful completion of the trip.
