The Physiological Zero And The Index Of Development For The Egg Of The Domestic Fowl, Gallus Domesticus (1902)

The book titled ""The Physiological Zero And The Index Of Development For The Egg Of The Domestic Fowl, Gallus Domesticus (1902)"" is written by Charles Lincoln Edwards. The book is a scientific study of the development of eggs in domestic fowl, specifically the Gallus Domesticus species. The author examines the concept of physiological zero, which is the temperature at which development of an egg stops, and how it affects the development of the embryo.The book also discusses the index of development, which is a measure of the growth of the embryo in relation to the time it has been developing. Edwards provides detailed observations and data on the development of eggs, including the effects of temperature, humidity, and other environmental factors on the growth of the embryo.The book is written in a scientific and technical style, with a focus on empirical data and research findings. It is intended for an audience of researchers, scientists, and students of biology and animal science who are interested in the development of eggs in domestic fowl. Overall, the book offers a valuable contribution to the field of avian embryology and provides important insights into the development of domestic fowl eggs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
