'''Introduction'''
    
'''Embryo''', when applied to mammals, is the term given to the developing organism from fertilisation to birth. Developmental biology, or embryology, is the study of the embryo as it transforms from a unicellular zygote to a multicellular, mulitsystemed organism which in some cases, is ready to function autonomously. Developmental biology is of interest to vets in understanding why organs and systems are the way they are, but also in understanding genetic disease and applying cell based therapy to treat loss or damage to tissue.
