AI overview

Ontogeny is the biological process of how an individual organism develops from its earliest stages, such as a fertilized egg, through embryonic development and growth into its adult form. Understanding ontogeny matters because it reveals how complex organisms like humans build themselves from simple beginnings, which helps explain both normal development and what can go wrong in birth defects or disease.
