  "term": "Bilaminar embryo",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "An early stage of embryonic development characterized by the formation of two distinct germ layers: the epiblast and the hypoblast. This structure arises from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst, typically around day 8-9 of human development. These two layers will subsequently give rise to all the tissues and organs of the developing organism.",
