Embryos are whole human beings, at the early stage of their maturation. The term 'embryo', similar to the terms 'infant' and 'adolescent', refers to a determinate and enduring organism at a particular stage of development.
A human zygote is a human being. It is not a "potential" or a "possible" human being. Itís an actual human beingówith the potential to grow bigger and develop its capacities. Myth 4: "A single-cell human zygote, or embryo, or fetus are not human beings, because they do not look like human beings."
