b. 13
c. 12
d. 15

ANSWER: 13
 
Scientists have grown human embryos outside of the mother for almost two full weeks into development, providing a glimpse of the mysterious stage of early human life.
  • Scientists have only been able to study human embryos before this as a culture in a lab dish until the 7th day of development when they had to implant them into the mother’s uterus to survive till now.
  • As well as advancing human biology expertise, the knowledge gained from studying these developments should help to improve in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatments and further progress in the field of regenerative medicine, the researchers said.
