| Comments | The human body consists of many cells and has a complex structure. The complexity of the human body begins with a single cell, the fertilized egg, which divides and increases in number, and is then transformed by the cells that change their position and shape. Developmantal biology is the study that pursues the mystery of this body building process. I am trying to unravel the mystery of how the body of living creatures is formed using chicken. |
