Protoconch :: Protoconch (n.) The embryonic shell, or first chamber, of ammonites and other cephalopods..

Embryonal :: Embryonal (a.) Pertaining to an embryo, or the initial state of any organ; embryonic..

Neuropore :: Neuropore (n.) An opening at either end of the embryonic neural canal.

Development :: Development (n.) The series of changes which animal and vegetable organisms undergo in their passage from the embryonic state to maturity, from a lower to a higher state of organization..

Polyembryony :: Polyembryony (n.) The production of two or more embryos in one seed, due either to the existence and fertilization of more than one embryonic sac or to the origination of embryos outside of the embryonic sac..

Gastrula :: Gastrula (n.) An embryonic form having its origin in the invagination or pushing in of the wall of the planula or blastula (the blastosphere) on one side, thus giving rise to a double-walled sac, with one opening or mouth (the blastopore) which leads into the cavity (the archenteron) lined by the inner wall (the hypoblast). See Illust. under Invagination. In a more general sense, an ideal stage in embryonic development. See Gastraea..

Polyembryonic :: Polyembryonic (a.) Polyembryonate.

Homogeny :: Homogeny (n.) The correspondence of common descent; -- a term used to supersede homology by Lankester, who also used homoplasy to denote any superinduced correspondence of position and structure in parts embryonically distinct (other writers using the term homoplasmy). Thus, there is homogeny between the fore limb of a mammal and the wing of a bird; but the right and left ventricles of the heart in both are only in homoplasy with each other, these having arisen independently since the divergence

Phallus :: Phallus (n.) The penis or clitoris, or the embryonic or primitive organ from which either may be derived..

Gastrulation :: Gastrulation (n.) The process of invagination, in embryonic development, by which a gastrula is formed..

Quintine :: Quintine (n.) The embryonic sac of an ovule, sometimes regarded as an innermost fifth integument. Cf. Quartine, and Tercine..

Homosystemic :: Homosystemic (a.) Developing, in the case of multicellular organisms, from the same embryonic systems into which the secondary unit (gastrula or plant enbryo) differentiates..

Polyembryonate :: Polyembryonate (a.) Consisting of, or having, several embryos; polyembryonic..

Metanephros :: Metanephros (n.) The most posterior of the three pairs of embryonic renal organs developed in many vertebrates.

Embryonic :: Embryonic (a.) Of or pertaining to an embryo; embryonal; rudimentary.

Oospere :: Oospere (n.) An analogous mass of protoplasm in the ovule of a flowering plant; an embryonic vesicle.

Chromoblast :: Chromoblast (n.) An embryonic cell which develops into a pigment cell.

Planula :: Planula (n.) In embryonic development, a vesicle filled with fluid, formed from the morula by the divergence of its cells in such a manner as to give rise to a central space, around which the cells arrange themselves as an envelope; an embryonic form intermediate between the morula and gastrula. Sometimes used as synonymous with gastrula..

Amniota :: Amniota (n. pl.) That group of vertebrates which develops in its embryonic life the envelope called the amnion. It comprises the reptiles, the birds, and the mammals..

Ossein :: Ossein (n.) The organic basis of bone tissue; the residue after removal of the mineral matters from bone by dilute acid; in embryonic tissue, the substance in which the mineral salts are deposited to form bone; -- called also ostein. Chemically it is the same as collagen..
