the sex of all embryos is decided when the sperm meets the egg. The egg is x and the sperm is either x or y. If y then it is a male and x is female.
About half of human embryos are spontaneously aborted (that is, with no overt actions taken by the mother or others); see http://www.emcom.ca/health/abortion.shtml for more details.
Fruit Flies and frog eggs are long-time,well characterized standbys in the lab environment,and specific manipulations allow researches to introduce genes from other organisms into these species
A baby has a sex long before it is a fetus. at the moment of conception, all DNA the human will have (sex, eye color, hair color, all gentic traits like that) is already present at that moment. Of course, actual reproductive organs come much later, but embryos do have genders
All chordates embryos have pharngeal slits.
the 2 things that ALL growing embryos need are food and oxygen
Testosterone is most important human male sex hormone . there are many varieties of it but all are cholesterol derivatives .
Correcting idiots for misstyping "Human Beings".
No, not all organisms start out as embryos. Embryos are typically seen in higher animals that undergo sexual reproduction, where a fertilized egg develops into an organism. Organisms like bacteria and protists reproduce asexually and do not have an embryonic stage in their life cycle.
The early embryos of all animals have a very similar appearance. This is no different for chicken and pig embryos.
A female human has two X sex chromosomes in her cells. A male human has one X and one Y sex chromosome in his cells.
All vertebrate embryos look roughly the same, showing that they come from a common ancestor.
