During human pregnancy, the heart is formed by the end of the first month (statement C is correct). By the end of the second month, limbs and digits are well developed (statement D is correct). Major organ systems are formed by the end of the 12th week (statement A is correct; statement B is incorrect because 8 weeks is too early). Appearance of hair is usually observed in the fifth month (statement E is correct). Thus, the correct statements are A, C, D and E, so the answer is D.
