Embryology (from Greek ἔμβρυον, embryon, "the unborn, embryo"; and -λογία, -logia) is the branch of biology that studies the development of gametes (sex cells), fertilization, and development of embryos and fetuses. Additionally, embryology is the study of congenital disorders that occur before birth.
After cleavage, the dividing cells, or morula, becomes a hollow ball, or blastula, which develops a hole or pore at one end.
In bilateral animals, the blastula develops in one of two ways that divides the whole animal kingdom into two halves (see: Embryological origins of the mouth and anus). If in the blastula the first pore (blastopore) becomes the mouth of the animal, it is a protostome; if the first pore becomes the anus then it is a deuterostome. The protostomes include most invertebrate animals, such as insects, worms and molluscs, while the deuterostomes include the vertebrates. In due course, the blastula changes into a more differentiated structure called the gastrula.

This video is intended to help students who are trying to get a handle on the complex three-dimensional changes that occur during early development. Drawing, plastic and a sleeping bag will hopefully clear up some of the challenging concepts in early development.
This is Part 1 of Professor Fink's Human Embryology Lecture. The Lecture distinguishes between sexual reproduction & sexual intercourse and describes In Vitro Fertilization. The Lecture then compares & contrasts Spermatogenesis with Oogenesis. The Lecture then begins a description of Human Embryology, including fertilization, the development of the Zygote into a Blastocyst & implantation during the 1st Week, formation of the Placenta & the Embryonic Disk during the 2nd Week. The Lecture also reviews the development of the Chorionic Sac, the Amniotic Sac, the Yolk Sac & the Allantoic Sac and discusses Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS). An introduction to the 3rd Week of Embryonic Development is given. Other Terms presented include: Chorion Frondosum, Decidua Basalis of the Endometrium,...
This is Part 2 of Professor Fink's Human Embryology Lecture. The Lecture presents what the 3 germinal layers ectoderm, mesoderm & endoderm) develop into. Reference is made to the neural tube, surface ectoderm, paraxial mesoderm, dermatome, myotome, sclerotome, intermediate mesoderm, lateral plate mesoderm, splanchnic mesoderm, somatic mesoderm, endoderm, development of the alimentary canal, and pharyngeal pouches. Reference is also made to Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, fetal development, development of the limbs, vernix caseosa, lanugo, descent of the testes. The Lecture also covers multiple births, fraternal (dizygotic) twins, identical (monozygotic) twins, conjoined twins. Down-loadable e-books of the Lecture Outlines by Professor Fink (as well as "hard copy" versions) can be purch...

This cylinder consists of three main layers, derived from the trilaminar embryonic disc: the endoderm in the center, the ectoderm on the outside, and the mesoderm, which is found between the two layers. During the fourth week of development, folding of the embryo occurs as a result of the differential rates of growth of the embryonic structures. The embryonic disc and amnion grow rapidly, however, growth of the yolk sac is much slower. Embryonic folding occurs in two planes: the horizontal plane, which results in the development of two lateral body folds, and ...

You may purchase the course at http://primalonlinelearning.com/ By the end of the second week of development, the bilaminar embryonic disc, consisting of the hypoblast and epiblast, has formed. Throughout the third week of development, this bilaminar disc differentiates to establish three primary germ layers, in a process known as gastrulation. Approximately 15 days after fertilization, a thickened structure forms along the midline in the epiblast, near the caudal end of the bilaminar embryonic disc. This is called the primitive streak. At this stage, the formation of the primitive streak defines the major body axes of the embryo, including the cranial end (towards the head) and caudal end (towards the tail) as wel...
This video goes in to the pharyngeal arches, an odd group of folds that contribute a variety of structures to the face and neck. We discuss the arches and their muscular, bony, and nervous features. We then talk about the grooves (outside) and pouches (inside) that create the ears and various glands. I hope you find it helpful!

You may purchase the course at http://primalonlinelearning.com/ Implantation of the blastocyst usually occurs 6-8 days after fertilization. By day 8, the blastocyst has burrowed into the uterine wall, being completely embedded by day 9. Day 8 The blastocyst is composed of two main components: the outer cell mass, the trophoblast; and the inner cell mass, the embryoblast. As the trophoblast makes contact with the endometrium, it differentiates into two layers: an inner, cytotrophoblast; and an outer, syncytiotrophoblast. The embryoblast differentiates into a bilaminar embryonic disc composed of two cell layers, the hypoblast, and the epiblast. Soon after the embryonic disc has formed, a cavity begins to appear bet...
