Karl von Baer (1792-1876)
University of Königsberg
Über Entwickelungsgeschichte der Thiere (On the Developmental History of Animals) 1828.
From Thomas Henry Huxley translation in Scientific Memoirs:[1]
- More general characters of a large group appear earlier in the embryo than the more special characters.
- From the most general forms the less general are developed, and so on, until finally the most special arises.
- Every embryo of a given animal form, instead of passing through the other forms, rather becomes separated from them.
- Fundamentally, therefore, the embryo of a higher form never resembles any other form, but only its embryo.
