unusual facts about Embryo


Juvenile fish

This stage is used instead of using an embryonic stage because there are aspects, such as those to do with the egg envelope, that are not just embryonic aspects.


Annie Korzen

Most recently, she appeared as John Turturro’s mother in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Jason Alexander's sister in Neil Simon's The Prisoner of Second Avenue and will soon be seen in "In Embryo", directed by Danish Actor Ulrich Thomsen.

Cerberus gene family

Anterior-posterior patterning by Cerberus is accomplished by acting as an antagonist to nodal, bmp, and wnt signaling molecules in the anterior region of the vertebrate embryo during gastrulation.

Chris Karrer

He is known as co-founder of Amon Düül (later participating in the related and much more commercially successful project Amon Düül II) and for his collaboration with Embryo.

Dissidenten

Around 1981, "Embryo's Dissidenten" were founded in India by Friedemann "Friedo" Josch (b 21 July 1952, Mainz, wind instruments, keyboards) and former Embryo band members Uwe "Uve" Müllrich (b 7 December 1947, Rügen, bass, oud, guitar, vocals) and Michael Wehmeyer (keyboards,piano).

Doubled haploidy

In barley, haploids can be produced by wide crossing with the related species Hordeum bulbosum, fertilization is effected, but during the early stages of seed development the H. bulbosum chromosomes are eliminated leaving a haploid embryo.

Drosophila embryogenesis

At the ventral end of the embryo, blastoderm nuclei exposed to high concentrations of dorsal protein induce the transcription of the transcription factors twist and snail while repressing zerknüllt and decapentaplegic.

It has been shown that the dsRNA-binding protein STAUFEN (STAU1) is responsible for guiding bicoid, nanos and other proteins, which play a role in forming the anterior-posterior axis, to the correct regions of the embryo to build gradients.

Easy to Wed

Van Johnson's biography, MGM's Golden Boy states that Lucille Ball's performance as Gladys "reveals the embryo of her Lucy Ricardo role in the later I Love Lucy television series," and also states that Keenan Wynn had been in a motorcycle accident before filming, had his mouth wired shut, and as a result, he had to talk between his teeth while losing thirty pounds in four weeks.

Evolutionary developmental biology

An early version of recapitulation theory, also called the biogenetic law or embryological parallelism, was put forward by Étienne Serres in 1824–26 as what became known as the "Meckel-Serres Law" which attempted to provide a link between comparative embryology and a "pattern of unification" in the organic world.

Fuller W. Bazer

2003: Wolf Prize in Agriculture along with R. Michael Roberts "for discoveries of Interferon-t and other pregnancy-associated proteins, which clarified the biological mystery of signaling between embryo and mother to maintain pregnancy, with profound effects on the efficiency of animal production systems, as well as human health and well-being".

Genetically modified mouse

In 1981 the laboratories of Frank Ruddle from Yale, Frank Constantini and Elizabeth Lacy from Oxford, and Ralph Brinster and Richard Palmiter in collaboration from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Washington injected purified DNA into a single-cell mouse embryo utilizing techniques developed by Brinster in the 1960s and 1970s, showing transmission of the genetic material to subsequent generations.

Hans Driesch

It appeared that any single monad in the original egg cell was capable of forming any part of the completed embryo.

Human cloning

Since a normal embryo implants at 14 days, Dr Robert Lanza, ACT's director of tissue engineering, told the Daily Mail newspaper that the embryo could not be seen as a person before 14 days.

Ignacio Carrasco de Paula

Bishop Carrasco de Paula said that "I find the choice of Robert Edwards completely out of order. Without Edwards, there would not be a market on which millions of ovocytes are sold ... and there would not be a large number of freezers filled with embryos in the world," he told the ANSA news agency.

Karnataka College of Percussion

The college features a percussion ensemble called Tala Tarangini, which has performed throughout Asia, Europe, North America, and Australia, and which has collaborated with numerous jazz rock musicians, including Charlie Mariano, Okay Temiz, Iain Ballamy, Dissidenten, and Embryo.

Mark Norell

Mark Norell is the direct discoverer of enigmatic theropods Shuvuuia and Mononykus, the discovery of Ukhaa Tolgod, the richest Cretaceous fossil locality in the world, the first embryo of a theropod dinosaur, the description of dinosaurs with feathers, and the first indication of dinosaur nesting.

Milkman joke

In the Blackadder the Third episode "Dish and Dishonesty," Blackadder mockingly asks if William Pitt the Younger's little brother is called "Pitt the Toddler," "Pitt the Embryo," or "Pitt the Glint in the Milkman's Eye."

Mukunda Neupane

In 1973 he took part in building an embryo of a trade union movement in Biratnagar.

Nicolas Malebranche

Malebranche also developed an original theory related to preformationism, postulating that each embryo probably contained even smaller embryos ad infinitum, like a Matryoshka doll.

Observatoire Oceanologique de Villefranche

The Russian Academy of Sciences then established a zoological station in the building, and Russian, French, and American experimental biologists including Aleksei Alekseevich Korotnev, Karl Vogt, Hermann Fol, Jules Henri Barrois, Élie Metchnikoff and Louis Agassiz started to work on embryos and the planktonic fauna collected in the bay.

Parvulastra parvivipara

There is no planktonic larval stage and the directly developing juveniles are cannibalistic, feeding on other embryos and juveniles while in the brood pouch.

Peter Thurnham

He was noted for his very strong support for the Abortion Act 1967 and for embryo research, and was a founder member of the Progress campaign group which promotes IVF.

Prenkë Jakova

The piece was nothing but the embryo of the first Albanian opera, Mrika, which was worked upon by Jakova in the following 6 years and eventually rehearsed on 2 May 1958, and put on stage on 12 November 1958.

Recapitulation theory

The first formal formulation was proposed by Étienne Serres in 1824–26 as what became known as the "Meckel-Serres Law", it attempted to provide a link between comparative embryology and a "pattern of unification" in the organic world.

Segment polarity gene

In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, segment polarity genes help to define the anterior and posterior polarities within each embryonic parasegment by regulating the transmission of signals via the Wnt signaling pathway and Hedgehog signaling pathway.

Situs solitus

For instance, different levels of sonic hedgehog and NODAL proteins on opposite sides of the embryo have been linked to proper bending of the embryonic heart, responsible giving it its asymmetrical form.

Stem cell laws and policy in the United States

19 July 2006 - President George W. Bush vetoes House Resolution 810 Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act, a bill that would have reversed the Dickey Amendment which made it illegal for federal money to be used for research where stem cells are derived from the destruction of an embryo.

Tamiel

Tamiel taught "the children of men all of the wicked strikes of spirits, the strikes of demons, and the strikes of the embryo in the womb so that it may pass away (abortion), and the strikes of the soul, the bites of the serpent, and the strikes which befall through the noontide heat, which is called the son of the serpent named Taba'et (meaning male)" during the days of Noah, not the days of Jared.
