- Every vertebrate has pharyngeal gill slits at some point in their
- life cycle. humans have theirs during the embryonic stage, and they
- later develop into other neato anatomy thingies.
-
- Also, whether the embryonic sac, umbilical cord etc belongs to
- the mother's body or not, the fetus still would be nothing without
- direct input of matter from the mother. Everything but the sperm
- is produced by the mother. that seems to be everyone else's point in
- this thread, isn't it?
