1 Embryology Preformation vs. Epigenesis
2 Gametogenesis & Fertilization Nuclei fusion Syngamy - fusion of sperm nucleus with egg nucleus to form the diploid nucleus.
3 Cleavage, Blastula & Gastrulation – Zygote divides mitosis- cleavage, blastula – By the end of gastrulation - 3 germ layers ectoderm mesoderm endoderm
4 Gastrulation in reptiles, birds, mammals
5 Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny Embryological development (ontogeny) involves the same progression of changes that have occurred during evolution (phylogeny
