The age of viability is defined as the stage (22 - 26 weeks) when a fetus has a chance of surviving outside the womb in case of premature birth. The fetal stage (A) is a broader period of prenatal development. The embryonic stage (B) occurs earlier (2 - 8 weeks post - conception). The germinal stage (C) is the earliest stage (first 2 weeks post - conception). So, the term that refers to the age between 22 and 26 weeks for fetal survival in premature birth is the age of viability (D).
