It's yet to be determined:

en.wikipedia.org

The beginning of human personhood is the moment when a human is first recognized as a person. There are differences of opinion as to the precise time when human personhood begins and the nature of that status. The issue arises in a number of fields including science, religion, philosophy, and law, and is most acute in debates relating to abortion, stem cell research, reproductive rights, and fetal rights.

What do you define as "life"? Biologically or legally. Those are two very different concepts.

What do you define as a "human person"? That is yet another concept.
