What you can see here are small 'postage-stamp' versions of these movies of serially sectioned frog and chick embryos. Students like watching and using these QuickTime movies to learn about developing embryos, and we want to share these movies with other students of developmental biology. After we made movies of several serially sectioned frog and chick embryos, we started using them in our developmental biology labs. We then used the sequence of images of an embryo to make a QuickTime digital movie.
Another Way To Look at Serially Sectioned Frog and Chick Embryos What we show here is the first part of a project we call '4-D Embryology-Embryos in Three Dimensions and Their Changes Over Time.' We captured digital images of all the sections of serially sectioned embryos.
