Gestation refers specifically to the period of time from fertilization to birth, encompassing the entire period of prenatal development. Embryology refers more broadly to the study of the development of the embryo and fetus, but does not specifically refer to the time spent in prenatal development. Spermatogenesis refers to the process of sperm cell development, which is unrelated to prenatal development. Atresia refers to the abnormal closure or absence of a normal body opening or tubular structure and is also unrelated to prenatal development.
