🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/10
The first organ to develop in the embryo is the heart. In a
fetus, there is a brain, but it isn't fully developed and can't
understand signals from the nervous system. Therefore the first
functional organ would be the heart. But the first thing to start
developing in a fetus is the nervous system. ( no that isn't an
organ )
