The document discusses embryonic development in humans. It begins with fertilization and cleavage, followed by gastrulation where the three germ layers are formed. During this time the primitive streak and Henson's node develop. Organogenesis then occurs, forming individual organs from the germ layers. Mammalian development includes the allantois and notochord. In humans, the placenta forms and gestation occurs over three trimesters, with major organ structures present by the first trimester.
