Which sequence lists the periods of prenatal development in the CORRECT developmental progression from earliest to latest?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks for the CORRECT developmental progression from earliest to latest in prenatal development.
Given the provided answer indicates the sequence: zygote -> embryo -> fetus.
First, consider what each term represents: a zygote is the initial cell formed when a sperm fertilizes an egg. It then undergoes rapid division and develops into an embryo. After the embryonic stage, development continues and the organism is termed a fetus, approaching the later stages of prenatal development before birth.
Thus, the sequence zygote -> embryo -> fetus correctly follows the standard order of prenatal development from earliest to latest.
Note: The answer options are not provided in this input, so it isn’t possible to compare each alternative option directly. However, any sequence that places the embryo after the zygote and the fetus after both would be considered incorrect in light of the established developmental timeline. Confusion would arise if a stage were placed out of order—for example, listing the embryo after the fetus or placing the zygote after the embryo.
In summary, the stated progression accurately reflects the canonical order of prenatal development stages.
