  1. Morphogenesis

    Morphogenesis is the biological process that causes a cell, tissue or organism to develop its shape. It is one of three fundamental aspects of developmental biology along with the control of tissue growth and patterning of cellular differentiation. The process controls the organized spatial distribution of cells during the embryonic development of an organism. Morphogenesis can take place also in a mature organism, such as in the normal maintenance of tissue by stem cells or in regeneration of tissues after damage. Cancer is an example of highly abnormal and pathological tissue morphogenesis. Morphogenesis also describes the development of unicellular life forms that do not have an embryonic stage in their life cycle. Morphogenesis is essential for the evolution of new forms. Wikipedia

    Biological development - Morphogenesis, Cell Differentiation, Pattern Formation: As was pointed out earlier, morphogenesis refers to all those processes by which parts of a developing system come to have a definite shape or to occupy particular relative positions in space. It may be regarded as the architecture of development. Morphogenetic processes involve the movement of parts of the ...

    Morphogenesis is a crucial aspect of embryonic development and is closely tied to the field of embryology. Morphogenesis is the biological process that causes an organism to develop its shape and structure. It involves the transformation of a simple group of cells into the complex tissues and organs that make up the mature organism.
