Abstract

Human embryo begins moving at tissue, cell and sub-cellular levels long before the mother emotionally feels the movement of the fetus. The human embryo and fetus not only develop in a mechanical environment but they exaggerate mechanical forces on themselves and their surroundings. Mechanical forces in example influence embryonic musculoskeletal development. In this chapter, the development and morphogenesis of human musculoskeletal system will be overviewed with their molecular aspects and the biomechanics of embryo and fetus will be discussed. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
