To discuss:
Sources of neonatal immunity; the age at which an infant produces ample amounts of antibody on its own.
Introduction:
A single cell–fertilized egg is transformed into a fully developed and independent individual. It is a miraculous and one of the most important aspects of human life. Embryology is a branch of science that deals with the study of prenatal development. Now, embryology is a part of developmental biology. The developmental biology deals with the changes that occur during development, as well as the functions of a fertilized egg from fertilization to old age.
