Mono: 1 oocyte
Di: 2 oocyte/ 2 sperm
Conjoined: Inner cells never seperate

Embryo Proper
Embryology Introduction
Umbilical Cord
Allantois (waste), connecting stalk, vitelline duct
Development of Back
PCD in limbs
AER leads to apoptosis to remove webbing + smaller AER
Development of Back
Paraxial - Sclerotome
Surrounds NT cells + Notochord –> spinal cord formation
Annulus Fibrosus
