An embryo is a multicellular diploid eukaryote in its earliest stage of development, from the time of fertilization through sexual reproduction until birth, hatching, or germination.
In humans, an embryo is generally considered to be between the first and the eighth week of development after fertilization, and from then it is instead called a fetus. While most organ systems develop from the third week to the eighth, embryonic life begins at conception.
The development of the embryo is called embryogenesis. In organisms that reproduce sexually, once a sperm fertilizes an egg cell, the result is a cell called the zygote, which possesses half the DNA of each of its two parents. In plants, animals, and some protists, the zygote will begin to divide by mitosis to produce a multicellular organism. The result of this process is an embryo.
First attested in English in the mid-14c., the word embryon derives from Medieval Latin embryo, itself from Greek ἔμβρυον (embruon), lit. "young one", which is the neuter of ἔμβρυος (embruos), lit. "growing in", from ἐν (en), "in" and βρύω (bruō), "swell, be full"; the proper Latinized form of the Greek term would be embryum.
Every one of us started out as an embryo, but only a few early embryos – about one in three – grow into a baby. Researchers are unlocking the mysteries of our embryonic clock and helping patients who are struggling to get pregnant.

After years of trial and error, scientists have finally done something incredible: They have successfully grown human stem cells in a pig embryo. Why would anyone do this? Turns out, many scientists have been working on growing the organs of one animal inside of a different type of animal. For example, scientists recently reported the successfully growth of mouse pancreases inside of rats. The ultimate goal of this type of work is to grow human organs inside of other animals as a means to ending the organ shortage that is costing thousands of Americans — who need a transplant — their lives each year. Now, using similar methods as the mouse-rat hybrid, scientists have produced the first human-pig hybrid embryo, which is more difficult than you might think. Getting cells from one species...
After an embryo transfer, most patients feel guilty for not resting enough, and tend to blame themselves when the cycle isn't successful. Nevertheless, the endometrium has several motion schemes to keep the embryo inside the uterine cavity, impeding its expulsion and implantation in inadequate areas.

One day after fertilization, the embryos are observed under the microscope. If they have been fertilized a single cell with two nuclei (masculine and feminine) will be observed. Two days after the puncture of the embryo it will divide into two cells with one nucleus per cell; these, in turn, divide again, giving an embryo with four cells. Three days after the puncture, the embryo divides again and will have eight cells. On the fourth day, the embryo divides several times into a default form called a morula. Then it begins to compact. On day five the embryo continues to divide until it has more than 100 cells. A lagoon, filled with liquid, forms in the centre. Subsequently, the embryo is released from its surrounding membrane (hatchling).
Alison Bartolucci, Operational Lab Director at the Center for Advanced Reproductive Services, talks about the difference between a blastocyst and a Day 3 embryo and why one would use one or the other during IVF. At the Center for Advanced Reproductive Services, we understand the emotional and health care needs of infertile individuals and couples and we focus on what you want most – a baby. As an academic affiliate of the UCONN School of Medicine, our expertise in the latest technologies and treatments in infertility allows us to offer many advanced techniques to help patients achieve successful pregnancies. We strive for excellence in patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes in a responsibly managed environment. We also offer support services that help our patients cope with the speci...
