   Embryology
   Embryology is the study of the development of embryos of animals and plants, from egg-cells or ova. Since the ova of most organisms do not develop before fertilisation, the study of embryology begins with fertilisation, and follows the subsequent changes of the fertilised ovum, and the conditions influencing its development.
