Explanation:

Question 7 (Matching Terms to Definitions)

• Fetus: The developing baby inside the womb from eight weeks until birth.
• Gestation: The time it takes for new life to grow and develop from conception to full - term.
• Embryo: The developing baby inside the womb from five weeks to eight weeks.
• Cleavage: When the cell inside the zygote splits and replicates itself.

Pregnancy tests detect the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone in the urine. DNA is not detected in urine for pregnancy tests, folate is a vitamin, and choline is a nutrient, neither of which is used to detect pregnancy.

Drinking alcohol during pregnancy can lead to fetal alcohol syndrome, which causes brain damage, physical abnormalities, and learning difficulties. Over - consumption of vegetables, drinking a reasonable amount of water, and lack of sleep during pregnancy do not cause these types of problems in the fetus.

Time it takes for the new life to grow and develop from conception to full - term	Gestation
