Embryology Core Questions
This web app presents core questions related to eleven embryology (developmental anatomy) topics. The keyboard, buttons & a slider are available to navigate among questions per topic. Students are expected to think about how they would answer each question and then use the mouse or the spacebar to reveal answers/images provided by the instructor. Each question has a short answer followed by a detailed answer that delivers additional information.

Embryology Highlights (Screencasts)
Veterinary Developmental Anatomy content is presented through a series of narrated video presentations (screencasts). Taken together, the series of screencasts constitutes an online Introductory Embryology course, subdivided into compact units. Initial units presenting fertilization, early embryogenesis, and placentation are followed by content units pertaining to body systems.

Embryology Highlights: Nervous System Development Screencasts
This web app presents links to narrated screencasts of nervous system embryonic development. Topics include: Early neural development, CNS development, and PNS & Meninges development. (The screencasts are included in the Embryology Highlights listd above.)

Developmental Anatomy: Subject Outlines & Knowledge Self-Assessment
This web app is intended to supplement class matrials that provide embryology images. It presents an Outline of Topics linked to True/False Questions with Explanations. The topical Outlines offer students another perspective of the subject matter. The Questions provide an opportunity to self-assess embryology knowledge prior to course examinations. The T/F Quizzes are geared for instruction, rather than grading. Embryology terms are shown in bold type.

Veterinary Developmental Anomalies
This web app presents a collection of veterinary developmental anomaly images (from Dr. V. S. Cox). The images are organized by system and by region. Anomaly commentaries and links to PDF descriptions of normal developmental anatomy are included.

Mitosis-Meiosis Review
This web app provides a review of mitosis and meiosis for veterinary students studying fertilization in Embryology. The Review illustrates how germ cells give rise to four haploid gametes with unique genotypes via meiosis, in contrast to mitosis which produces two identical daughter cells. Gametogenesis is also reviewed.
