Features of embryonic development in a chick and discussing Introduction During this essay, the features of embryonic development are analysed and comparisons between the developments of different species will be explored. Developmental biology is the study of the activity which leads to the growth and maturation of organisms.[1] The Red Jungle Fowl (Gallus gallus) is thought to be the ancestral to the modern domestic chicken. (Fumihito et al., 1994). [1] Chickens have had a long association…

The name ‘pancreas’ was later coined by Rufus (100 A.D.), another Greek physician, and etymologically translates as all flesh (pan: all, and kreas: flesh) – at the time the…
