Why do babies born at full term have a better chance for survival than babies born a few months early?

Babies that are born on or relatively near their due date are "most of the time" healthier that premature babies. Premature babies are born before there due date by weeks or even months. If they are born early, they wouldn't have grown to their full capability while still in their mom's stomach. Generally, if a woman is having early contractions and is heading into labor, the doctors will give her a medication to stop the pain/contractions.
All in all, babies that are born premature aren't as fully grown as babies who are born on time.

That is backwards. A baby has a better chance of survival the longer the fetus can proceed in the pregnancy, e.g. 9 months. So an 8th month fetus has a far better chance than a 7 or 8 month fetus.
