However, because the scientific literature is quite discordant in this point and uses the time, stages and length of the body as criteria to designate the age of the embryo/fetus, the chronology in Embryodynamics Software, Materials, Animation and Services is given as an approximate time labeled in hours, days, weeks, months and quarters. In addition, because of the discordances in the scientific literature about the chronology of development, you understand, acknowledge and agree it is possible that the indicated ages do not entirely correspond to the data given in other various embryological textbooks. You understand, acknowledge and agree that proportions of the developing structures have been respected, except where for didactic or technical reasons this was not possible.
