Overview

This course is concerned with providing the student with the foundations of embryology and embryogenesis in living organisms, as well as his applied areas of specialization such as artificial insemination and congenital malformations.

Intended learning outcomes

1. Recognize the relationship between embryology and other sciences

2. Recognize the anatomical and functional structure of reproductive organs in vertebrates

3. Mention the most important differences between the organs of embryos in vertebrates

4. Enumerates the stages of embryo synthesis in different organisms

5. Determines the drawing of the different organs and stages of egg formation

Teaching and learning methods

1. Lectures and presentations by PowerPoint and documentaries supporting the lecture

2. A quarterly visit to the Center for Disease Control to learn about ways to detect all parasites.

3. Discussion panels some presentation of each student assigned to him at the end of the last part of each lecture
