The HUMAN BODY PLAN: STUDY of ANATOMY and PHYSIOLOGY THE HUMAN BODY PLAN The human body begins to take shape during the earliest stages of embryonic development. While the embryo is a tiny hallow ball of dividing cells‚ it begins forming the tissues and organs that compose the human body. By the end of its third week‚ human embryo has bilateral symmetry (a body plan in which the left and right sides mirror each other) and is developing vertebrate characteristics that will support an upright

attempting to define what poverty is‚ one would suggest having a lack of income and resources not consistent with the requirements of the poverty line. Three factors that play major roles as causes of poverty would be having a lack of education‚ systemic discrimination‚ and inequities based on a capitalist system.
