How to use "Ontogeny" in context?
Ontogeny is the process of growth and development during a lifetime. It encompasses the physical, physiological, and psychological changes that take place in an individual from conception to death. Ontogeny is a term that refers to the individual development of a particular creature from its earliest stages, though it can be used more broadly to refer to the developmental processes of any organism. Throughout ontogeny, an individual undergoes a series of changes that result in their growth and development. Ontogeny is a key part of the life cycle, as it is responsible for the changes that occur throughout an individual's life.
