Solution

The correct option is C 270-280 days

The gestation period is the period of foetal development starting from fertilisation and ending at parturition or childbirth. During this period, the single-celled zygote undergoes gradual changes that help it to become a functional multicellular organism. The gestation period in human beings is about 270-280 days (9 months).
