This mesmerising animation shows how babies form

Created by designed Eleanor Lutz, this addictive animation takes us through the transformation from egg to baby, and teaches us an important lesson - at one moment in time, we all looked like a malformed chameleon baby (steps A1 to C1, specifically). 

Click here for a zoomable version.

Made from 396 sketches based on scientific data from Scott F. Gilbert’s textbook,Developmental Biology, the animation starts with a zygote - a fertilised egg cell - which slowly multiplies through the process of mitotic division to produce a multicellular embryo.

First the zygote must undergo ‘cleavage’, which increases the number of cells up until the eight-cell stage. After the eight-cell stage, mammalian embryos undergo compactation, where the cells bind tightly to each other, forming a compact sphere called a morula. The cells then start to differentiate themselves into two groups - an outer layer of cells called the trophoblast, and an inner cell mass.

A process called cavitation occurs next, in which the outer cells start to leak water to the inside cells, and when they’ve multipled to between 40 to 150 cells all squished together, a fluid-filld cavity called the blastocyst will have been formed.

Of these two parts, the outer trophoblast will eventually form the placenta, and the inner cell mass will become the baby.

While Lutz says it’s the most complicated animation she’s made so far, she regrets not being able to show scale in it properly. “For example, the 24-week foetus is about 40 times heavier than a 12-week foetus, but you can’t tell that from this drawing,” she says.

Lutz is an amazing designer, and her site is filled with awesome animated infographics about everything from how the respiratory system works and biolumenescent creature charts to how to make your own computer. Check them out at her website, Tabletop Whale.

Active Study Tasks

Hi everyone! One of the hardest things to do is active studying before exams! While many of us study hard, we may not be considering that we are not studying actively! Passive studying is things such as only reading previously highlighted material and continuously reciting the same information over and over. To actively study, first break your study time down into two different categories: Preparation and Review! 

The key to Preparation is ICOW! Identify, Condense, Organize, and Write. These strategies will help you do it:

Develop study sheets

Develop concept maps and charts

Create flash cards for vocab, questions, formulas and problems

Make self-tests

Remark (rehighlight or review previously highlighted material and finding what is the most important information)

Find practice problems

Outline

Rewrite any notes

Summarize text or lecture notes into main ideas

List the steps needed for a problem or concept

Plan essay answers

Answer questions at the end of the chapter.

Prepare material for a study group

Create a 5-Day study plan

Next you want to actually Review the information you gathered through your prep. The key to review is RE-USE: Rehearse, Extend, Understand, Self-Test, and Evaluate. Here are some strategies:

Recite outloud information from your study sheets

Replicate concept maps with little to no help

Recite any flashcards you made. Separate out any difficult cards so that you can continue to review them. 

Practice writing formulas

Complete practice problems, circle steps you did wrong and try again in a different pen color (to help you identify the differences)

Take the self-tests you made before. 

Attempt reverse testing. Make questions out of the answers from before and work them backwards.

Take notes on remarked tests and notes

Explain material to group members

Write essay answers from memory

Go through lecture slides or textbook and recite all the information you know based off of the heading. 

Evaluate how much you know and how much you have to review again. Take longer in reviewing missed material and simply review information you learned quickly for the end of your study session. 

Note: Many of these tasks are from the book Taking Charge of Your Learning by Dianna Blerkom
