Vertebrate embryos generally go through the same developmental stages at different rates. While many vertebrate embryos share similar early developmental stages (such as cleavage, gastrulation, and organogenesis), the timing of these stages can vary significantly between species. For example, the rate of development can differ among mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians. Each species has adapted its developmental timelines to suit its ecological and evolutionary needs.
