This lecture explores the mechanisms behind the patterning and growth of organs in embryos, focusing on somitogenesis rhythm, clock and wavefront models, and the segmentation clock. It discusses the role of symmetry breaking, zygote development, and the clock and wavefront mechanism in controlling repeated structures during morphogenesis.
