          Recapitulates Phylogeny’) and Spemann (‘Organizer’ hypothesis)
          at the end of
          the 19<sup>th</sup> Century for want of mechanisms for these
          concepts that
          would advance the field of Evolutionary Biology. Instead, the

          is the essence of
          evolutionary change. But the mechanism of embryogenesis
          through growth factor
          signaling between cells would have to wait until the mid-20<sup>th</sup>

          was epigenetic <b><sup>4</sup></b>.
          Exposure of pregnant rats to nicotine, the biologically active

          their
          environment, as first suggested by Jean-Baptiste Lamarck in
          the 18<sup>th</sup>

          effector of
          evolution gave rise to a novel way of thinking about

          Again, because

          those of Nature-
          gravity, gases, ions, heavy metals. By reducing the phenotypes

          and phylogeny to their cellular-molecular elements in

          "Times New Roman";color:black" lang="EN-US">A recent
          breakthrough in transcending
          descriptive biology is the recognition of the critical
          importance of epigenetic
          inheritance in the evolutionary process and its crucial role
          in reproduction.
          Indeed, mammalian reproduction is critically dependent upon
          several endoviral
          endogenizations. Lewis Wolpert <b><sup>7</sup></b> has stated
          that “It is not
          birth, death or marriage, but gastrulation which is truly the
          most important
          time in your life”, gastrulation being the stage of
          embryogenesis during which
          the mesodermal germ layer is formed, dictating the further
          development of the
          fetus through interactions between the mesoderm, endoderm and
          ectoderm. It is
          now known that the genes that control the transition from the
          blastula to the
          gastrula undergo epigenetic modifications, offering a
          mechanistic basis for
          understanding how such epigenetic marks affect embryogenesis.
          Therefore, the
          local environment largely determines the immediate impact of
          epigenetic
          inheritance that is limited and edited during meiosis, and
          then again during
          morphogenesis as a derivative of the unicellular state.
          Therefore, the zygotic
          unicellular state must be properly appreciated as the crucial
          intermediary in
          the modulation of these epigenetic influences, not merely
          because that phase
          lies between, but as the embodiment of the
          reiteratively-elaborated eukaryotic
          organism. The obligatory return to the unicellular stage
          through sexual
          reproduction is the controlled process that permits that
          crucial re-centering
          and modulation of both the Epigenome and the intrinsic genome.
          It is this
