Abstract
By 6 1/2 days, the structure of the uterine mucosa is not much different from what it was on the 6th day. By 7 days, it still may not have changed, mainly because of the variation in the degree of development of specimens having the same copulation age. The uterine reaction was examined in detail in a specimen of 6 days 20 hours, which was somewhat retarded in development. The specimen is regarded as typical of 6 1/2 days. The structure of the implantation site, rather than the structure of the embryo, was chosen by Streeter [6] to define the comparable human age.
