Cell Division in a Frog Embryo video

After beginning this concept with several classes and realizing that the old VHS version of this I have is impossible to show to one of my classes because the facility doesn't have a VHS player (not that I can blame them for not having antiques around!), I went on a hunt and finally found it! 

I am hoping that promoting this time lapsed video a bit helps a few more students better understand that every one of us started out as one single cell - and that the single cell simply made millions of copies of itself, and those cells were 'assigned' a wide variety of jobs to form the adult being.   

Spread the miracle of embryology!
