Ontogenesis is the short and rapid recapitulation of phylogenesis, caused by the physiological functions of inheritance.    From Wordnik.com.  [RECAPITULATION] Reference

Best to leave that fancy stuff for later, and concentrate on more basic phylogenesis: it would be nice, for example, to be a vertebrate again.    From Wordnik.com.  [Obama echoes the phrase that made me turn against Kerry.] Reference

Already in this first of his generalizations Haeckel implied through the use of the verb bedingen a causal rela - tionship between ontogenesis and phylogenesis.    From Wordnik.com.  [RECAPITULATION] Reference

I was excited to meet him because I had read his dissertation on the phylogenesis of modern Megalonychidae, and I wanted to quiz him on certain . . . aspects of his research that I saw as questionable.    From Wordnik.com.  [I Met John Scalvi! « Whatever] Reference

One might expect that since current orthodoxy maintains that biological processes of ontogenesis proceed differently from the selectionist processes of phylogenesis, evolutionary epistemologies would reflect this difference.    From Wordnik.com.  [Evolutionary Epistemology] Reference

The phylogenesis of the human species covers a process of evolution in which the organs that produce and identify sounds and the brain which makes sense of those sounds develop over a long period of time which includes the birth of Mankind.    From Wordnik.com.  [Camilo José Cela - Nobel Lecture] Reference

Nothing in evolution makes sense except in the light of phylogenesis, like ontogenesis, being a front-loaded, self-limiting, self-terminating planned process where the environment plays little if any role outside of providing triggers to proceed to the next stage of diversification.    From Wordnik.com.  [Nobel Laureate: "Intelligent Design" is An Attack on All of Science - The Panda's Thumb] Reference

It summarises the history of species; ontogenesis, we are told, reproduces phylogenesis.    From Wordnik.com.  [A New Philosophy: Henri Bergson] Reference

We have concentrated the full force of our discussion upon an example drawn from phylogenesis.    From Wordnik.com.  [Evolution créatrice. English] Reference

Ontogenesis may be considered as a repetition of phylogenesis insofar as the latter has not been varied by a more recent experience.    From Wordnik.com.  [Three Contributions to the Theory of Sex] Reference

Why does he not labour at that hitherto quite unworked-out branch, physiogenesis, at the history of the evolution of functions, at the ontogenesis and phylogenesis of vital processes?.    From Wordnik.com.  [Freie wissenschaft und freie lehr. English] Reference

Comparative anatomy and phylogenesis, which by their explanatory hypotheses raise those dead masses of facts to the place of true and living sciences -- these must not be taught at all.    From Wordnik.com.  [Freie wissenschaft und freie lehr. English] Reference

"History of Creation" is treated simply as a romance, and the genealogies of phylogenesis are in his eyes "of about as much value as the pedigrees of the Homeric heroes are in the eyes of historical critics.".    From Wordnik.com.  [Freie wissenschaft und freie lehr. English] Reference

The researchers said the timing of acquisition of motor skills such as walking seems to have been highly conserved in the evolution of mammals, because the ancestors of some of the species in the study "diverged in phylogenesis as long as 100 million years ago.".    From Wordnik.com.  [PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories] Reference

The individual development or ontogenesis of each of these many-celled animal-forms, brings this histological process of development so clearly and evidently before our eyes that we can but directly infer from it the truth of the phylogenesis, or gradual historical evolution of the soul-organs.    From Wordnik.com.  [Freie wissenschaft und freie lehr. English] Reference

For this purpose we can borrow facts from two distinct sources: (a) individual development, which is the safest, clearest, and easiest to observe; (b) the development of the species, or historical development, according to the accepted principle that phylogenesis and ontogenesis follow the same general line.    From Wordnik.com.  [Essai sur l'imagination créatrice.

But as to the much-talked-of "genealogies," though they are nothing more than the simplest, barest, and most superficial expression of the hypotheses of phylogenesis, as provisional hypotheses they are just as indispensable to specific phylogenesis as the theoretical section-tables of the strata of the earth's crust are to geology.    From Wordnik.com.  [Freie wissenschaft und freie lehr.

The alleged biological truth that the individual in his growth from the simple embryo to maturity repeats the history of the evolution of animal life in the progress of forms from the simplest to the most complex (or expressed technically, that ontogenesis parallels phylogenesis) does not concern us, save as it is supposed to afford scientific foundation for cultural recapitulation of the past.    From Wordnik.com.  [Democracy and Education: an introduction to the philosophy of education] Reference

Aeckelian view in which ontogenesis so closely recapitulates phylogenesis to the likely dismay of the Discovery Institute, Sermonti agrees that early vertebrate embryos resemble each other that it can be used backwards, as an interpretative tool for it.    From Wordnik.com.  [Of Form over Substance: a review of Sermonti - The Panda's Thumb] Reference

Geologists may be extremely grateful for this estimate of their science, for undoubtedly geology, as a structure of hypotheses, is neither more nor less justifiable than phylogenesis, as I have already pointed out in my Munich address: "Our phylogenetic hypotheses may claim to have equal value with the universally-admitted hypotheses of geology; the only difference is this, that the mighty structure of hypotheses called geology is incomparably more complete, simpler, and easier to grasp than that more youthful one called phylogenesis.".    From Wordnik.com.  [Freie wissenschaft und freie lehr.

I myself, in my Munich address, sought the instructional value of our monistic evolution theory above all in the genetic method, in the inquiry, that is to say, for the effective causes of the facts taught; and I added these words -- "How far the principles of the doctrine of universal evolution ought to be at once introduced into our schools, and in what succession its most important branches ought to be taught in the different classes -- cosmogony, geology, the phylogenesis of animals and plants, and anthropology -- this we must leave to practical teachers to settle.    From Wordnik.com.  [Freie wissenschaft und freie lehr.
