Zygote vs Embryo

- A zygote is the formation from the two gametes, the sex cells sperm and egg. (pronuclei). It forms in about 3 days.

- An embryo has 3 main structural parts, further developed (forms in the 2nd week after pregnancy).

1. Brain/spinal cord, skin, nerves

2. Digestive system organs

3. Heart, muscles, & skeletal system

They both exist in the womb (uterus).
