The medical field clearly establishes when human life begins. The formation of an embryo occurs at conception, or the moment when the sperm and egg cells fuse. This means that any Pro-Choice people who rely on medicine rather than religion have to face the truth that abortion terminates life. The ideas presented on stem cell research were informative.

The decision “overturned all state laws restricting women's access to abortions during the first trimester [ first three months] of pregnancy and let stand second-trimester restrictions only insofar as they were designed to protect the health of pregnant women ” (“Roe v.
