The embryo in this stage is similar in<br />
appearance <strong>to</strong> a chewed substance,<br />
because the somites at the back of the<br />
embryo somewhat resemble teeth marks<br />
in a chewed substance.<br />

gum and an actual pho<strong>to</strong> of an embryo. How is it possible<br />
