Solution
The human gestation period spans approximately 280 days from fertilisation to parturition. This timeframe encompasses approximately 9 months of pregnancy and allows for complete foetal development, organ formation, and maturation. By this time, the foetus reaches sufficient maturity for survival outside the uterus with the support of postnatal adaptation.
