BI80642: Developmental Biology

This module introduces the principles and mechanisms that control the growth and development of living organisms. It examines animal development from fertilization through embryogenesis to adulthood, and plant development from seed germination to the formation of mature organs. The module emphasizes cell division, differentiation, morphogenesis, genetic regulation, hormonal control, and environmental influences on development. It also explores the molecular and physiological processes that ensure normal growth and adaptation in both animals and plants
