Embryos in Deep Time by Marcelo Snchezvillagra

Embryos in Deep Time by Marcelo Snchezvillagra

Can fossil embryos demonstrate evolutionary changes in reproductive modes? How have changes in ocean chemistry in the past affected the development of marine organisms? And, what can the microstructure of fossil bone and teeth reveal about maturation time, longevity and changes in growth phases? This book addresses these and other issues.
