IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS: In courses with fewer class sessions this material may have to be incorporated with discussions of each organ system or included with the reproductive system discussions. If only one session is available, the instructor will have to decide whether the students being served by the course would benefit most from study and understanding of development or study and understanding of genetics. If three sessions are available then the material splits nicely into one session on prenatal development, one session on parturition, development after birth and aging, and a final session on genetics and inheritance.
Study of this topic does not have to be solely for its own sake. There are basic structural relationships among organs in the adult that make more sense when considered in light of the developmental history of the body. If instructors have been including developmental information throughout the course as each organ system was discussed in detail, then only a summary review of this topic will be required at this point.
