In humans, the growth of a baby inside a mother takes about 9 months.
In chickens, mice and rats this growth only takes about 3 weeks.

- During this time a single cell will grow into many different cell types with different shapes and jobs to do in the body.
- A similar process will occur in all different embryos.
- In humans, many important changes occur in the first few weeks of development and much of the following 9 months is growth.
Lets now follow the growth and changes in the embryo over time.
