But the child's dependency on the mother is only temporary, and one cannot conclude that because parts are inside the whole, and the embryo is inside the mother, the embryo is a part of the mother any more than one can conclude that because all turkeys are born from eggs and all chickens are born from eggs, all turkeys are chickens. Such logic is invalid and involves an undistributed middle term.
