Script: 6 SEMAINES

À 6 semaines, les hémisphères cérébraux se sont développés avec une rapidité disproportionnée par rapport aux autres sections du cerveau.

L'embryon commence à faire des mouvements spontanés et réflexifs. Ces mouvements sont nécessaires pour assurer un développement neuromusculaire normal.

All ages referenced to fertilization, not last menstrual period.
