Group of answer choices The period during which the zygote moves down to the uterus and begins to implant in the lining The period during which the umbilical cord develops The period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop The period during which tremendous growth occurs and the organs continue to develop and become functional

Answer 1

• Option-

1. The period during which the umbilical cord develops.
2. The period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop.

Step-by-step explanation:

• As, the development of an offspring is comprised of the different process and developments that occurs for having a more developed form of body system for the living beings that is yet to be delivered however, we can term the embryonic stage as the time for the offspring when the organs are initialized to be developed in the further stages of the fetus development.
• While, the umbilical cord is developed during the stage, which is required for having a very easy passage between the placenta and the offspring's mother body.

Answer 2

The period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop.

Step-by-step explanation:

Germinal stage:

Germinal stage term is used for first two weeks of gestation after conception.

Embryonic period:

Embryonic period is considered from third week to the eighth week after conception.

Fetal period:

From ninth week until birth stage is known as fetal period.

Now, the embryonic period of gestation starts after germinal stage and during this phase the major organs and structures are formed within the growing mammal.
