 ====== PBA101H: The Science of When Life Begins ======
-The basic science to establish the humanity of a pre-born child as a human being from the point of fertilization.
+Replaced by [[PBA100Y]].
-**Scott F. Gilbert's __Development Biology__** is the textbook used by CSB328H at the University of Toronto, and by the MIT OpenCourseWare Developmental Biology class. The opening sentence of Chapter 7: Fertilization: Beginning a new organism:
-> Fertilization is the process whereby two sex cells (gametes) fuse together to create a new individual with a genome derived from both parents. Fertilization accomplishes two separate ends: sex (the combining of genes derived from two parents) and reproduction (the creation of a new organism).
