"Fetus" in context
A fetus is the term for an unborn baby in its earliest stages of development. Fetal development begins at conception and changes rapidly throughout the 9 months of gestation. Fetal development is a fascinating process that involves extreme growth and specialization of its organs and body parts. During development, the fetus receives nutrition and oxygen from the mother through the placenta. The placenta also helps remove waste products from the fetus's blood.
Fetal development is highly sensitive to external influences, which can make it difficult to predict outcomes. Poor nutrition, smoking, drinking, and exposure to certain chemicals can negatively influence a fetus's development.
