By means of various kinds of recombination of the two halves of the chick limb buds transected at the presumptive zeugopod mid-length a continuity was established between the opposite portions of the mesenchymal precursors of heterologous shaft bones of the zeugopod. In later development, both proximal and distal components of the recombined skeletal pieces consistently showed variously marked differences in size and shape in comparison with the corresponding parts of the control bones. Reciprocally, from the opposite portions of the presumptive territory of each zeugopodal bone separated the one from the other so that they could not contact and fuse, hypoplasic pieces developed which failed to attain the size and shape typical of the control segments. Those observations seem to show that morphogenetic interactions reciprocally exerted between the various parts of the presumptive territory of each shaft bone are mandatory to ensure the normal development of these skeletal pieces.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009024	Morphogenesis	The development of anatomical structures to create the form of a single- or multi-cell organism. Morphogenesis provides form changes of a part, parts, or the whole organism.
D001842	Bone and Bones	A specialized CONNECTIVE TISSUE that is the main constituent of the SKELETON. The principal cellular component of bone is comprised of OSTEOBLASTS; OSTEOCYTES; and OSTEOCLASTS, while FIBRILLAR COLLAGENS and hydroxyapatite crystals form the BONE MATRIX.

D002642	Chick Embryo	The developmental entity of a fertilized chicken egg (ZYGOTE). The developmental process begins about 24 h before the egg is laid at the BLASTODISC, a small whitish spot on the surface of the EGG YOLK. After 21 days of incubation, the embryo is fully developed before hatching.	Embryo, Chick,Chick Embryos,Embryos, Chick

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
