14. Differentiate between gametogenesis from embryogenesis.
The major difference between gametogenesis and embryogenesis is as follows:
Gametogenesis | Embryogenesis |
The process of formation of gametes is called gametogenesis | The process of formation of the embryo is called embryogenesis |
This process involves meiotic divisions that lead to the formation of gametes | This process involves mitotic division that leads to the development of a zygote into an embryo |
Gametogenesis leads to fertilisation | Embryogenesis is followed by organogenesis |
