THE NUT. "Haeckel’s observation was indeed simple; successive stages in the organism’s early (embryonic) development remarkably, albeit figuratively and metaphorically, resurrect adult stages in the evolutionary history of respective species, and therefore he surmised the parallelism between ontogeny and phylogeny as interesting." https://lnkd.in/dE2ft2W View in LinkedIn

INTEGRATING IDEAS. "Ernst Haeckel’s pithy aphorism “ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny,” alternately referred as the recapitulation theory, biogenetic law or theory of embryonic parallelism, has been one of the pivotal observations in biology that integrated disciplines of evolutionary biology and developmental biology to the portmanteau field EvoDevo." https://lnkd.in/dE2ft2W View in LinkedIn

"THE BIOGENETIC LAW is a theory of development and evolution proposed by Ernst Haeckel in Germany in the 1860s. It is one of several recapitulation theories, which posit that the stages of development for an animal embryo are the same as other animals' adult stages or forms. Commonly stated as ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny, the biogenetic law theorizes that the stages an animal embryo undergoes during development are a chronological replay of that species' past evolutionary forms." https://lnkd.in/dQY9jJm View in LinkedIn
