leggöngum
Leggöngum is a term that refers to the physiological process of pregnancy in mammals. It encompasses the period from conception, when a sperm fertilizes an egg, to parturition, when the offspring is born. During leggöngum, the fertilized egg implants in the uterine wall and develops into an embryo, and subsequently a fetus. The duration of leggöngum varies significantly between species. For instance, human leggöngum typically lasts around 40 weeks, while a mouse's leggöngum is only about 20 days.
The development during leggöngum is a complex and precisely regulated series of events. The developing organism
Leggöngum is essential for the continuation of species, allowing for the development and birth of new individuals.
