Embryo with Placental Membranes

By the external appearance of the embryo appears to be about Week 7 (GA week 9) either Carnegie stage 18 or Carnegie stage 19

  • amniotic sac - formed by the amniotic membrane (ectoderm and extra-embryonic mesoderm) completely surrounding the surrounding the embryo.
