Best Answer

In short, an embryo undergoes both cellular division and cellular differentiation to become a fetus. This is achieved by the genetic program present in the cell(s) which controls both mentioned processes. It is the stage of developing mammal.After 9th week of fertilisation,the embryo can be called foetus.
