Question

Which of the following events is not correct with the time span associated with it in a normal human fetus?
Options
A the sex of the child is evident in week 10
B the limbs are distinct and bones begin to form in week 8
C heart begins beating in week 4
D none of the above
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

All the statements are generally correct for human embryonic/fetal development. The heart begins beating around week 4. Limb buds appear and bones begin forming by week 8. External genitalia develop and sex becomes evident by week 10-12. Therefore, 'none of the above' is correct.

Hint

Check each statement against standard embryology timelines.
