Cleft palate occurs during which weeks in utero?

  1. Weeks 3-4

  2. Weeks 4-5

  3. Weeks 6-8

  4. Weeks 9-10

The correct answer is: Weeks 6-8

Cleft palate occurs during weeks 6-8 in utero because this is when the baby's palate (roof of the mouth) starts to form. Options A and B are too early in the pregnancy for the palate to be developing, and option D is too late. Options A, B, and D may be incorrect choices for those who are not familiar with fetal development. Option C is the correct answer because it aligns with the normal timeline of fetal development.
