The artwork is captivating. As we can see, the illustration is a fetus with the parts of the cell in it and I have realized that we can relate these two. Life begins as a single cell. We have known that cells are the fundamental and basic unit of life. The same goes for the fetus because it is our indication that life will form or begin. I am really impressed how the artist lets the viewers appreciate the fascinating process of embryonic development and the fundamental role that cells play in shaping life.
