Embryo: Color Atlas for Developmental Biology
Prentice Hall, Englewood Cliffs, NJ
Description of CD-ROM
EMBRYO: COLOR ATLAS FOR DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY is a collection of hundreds of high-quality color photographs of developing frog, chick, and pig embryos on CD-ROM.
Paired labeled and unlabeled images are included, with each pair consisting of conventional whole mounts or serial transverse and sagittal sections.
- Also included are time-lapse clips of developing chick embryos and stacks of serial sections�which can be viewed sequentially in rapid sequence to aid the student in tracing structures rostrocaudally throughout the length of the embryo.
- Embryonic rudiments appearing in images can be searched for by key word, and individual databases can be constructed using the simple navigational tools.
Suitable for both student self-study and computer-aided teaching withina classroom setting, this exciting new tool will enhance your students'experience in developmental biology.
Sample Images
Each image on the CD will consist of a group of three: a fully labeled image (below left), an image labeled with letters for testing purposes (below middle), and a completely unobscured, unlabeled image (below right). [Click on an image to see a full-size version.]
