ANAT 210 - Developmental Anatomy

[3 Credits]

The normal and abnormal aspects of human prenatal development are presented in a lecture series, which is coordinated, when possible, with the dissection schedule in gross anatomy. Definitive adult structures and their relations are appreciated through an understanding of their formation and relations during the embryonic period. Included are important features of fetal development, which are essential for normal birth and adaptation to the extrauterine environment.
