Evolutionary Embryology
Charles Darwin's theory of evolution restructured comparative embryology and gave it a new focus. After reading Johannes Müller's summary of von Baer's laws in 1842, Darwin saw that embryonic resemblances would be a very strong argument in favor of the genetic connectedness of different animal groups. “Community of embryonic structure reveals community of descent,” he would conclude in On the Origin of Species in 1859.
