Development of complex, multicellular organisms
Developmental Anatomy
2 types of development
ontogenetic
phylogenetic
Ontogenetic development = transformation of ____ –> ____.
zygote –> new individual
Phylogenetic development = transformation of ____ –> ____ organisms.
simple to complex
Another term for developmental anatomy
embryology
What is the most critical developmental stage?
embryo
Stage of development from fertilization –> completion of organogenesis
embryo
Term for “pregnancy” in vet med
gestation
Term for “birth” in vet med
parturition
Term for establishment of major organ primordia
organogenesis
Organ primordia
= earliest recognizable stage of organ
Development stage that is remainder of prenatal development devoted to growth, differentiation, maturation of body systems
fetus

What system is first to form in embryo?
nervous system
3 phases of earyl development
