hereditary factors. Epigenesis Some biologists of the 17th and 18th centuries believed that they saw miniature individuals in the sperm or eggs of various organisms, an observation that led to the doctrine of preformation. According to this theory all parts of the adult are already formed at the beginning of embryonic life, and as a result, embryonic development consists solely of growth. Toward the end of the 18th century, Caspar Friedrich WOLFF conducted extensive investigations on developing
