Original Note:
A 6-week embryo does not have a "heart" like that of a more developed fetus, child, or adult. Rather "at six weeks, the embryo will develop a tube that generates sporadic electrical impulses that eventually coordinate into rhythmic pulses" which can be detected by ultrasound. https://www.nbcnews.com/health/womens-health/heartbeat-bills-called-fetal-heartbeat-six-weeks-pregnancy-rcna24435
