Coordinated organization of groups of cells in the plane of an epithelium, such that they all orient to similar coordinates. Coordinated organization of groups of cells in a tissue, such that they all orient to similar coordinates. A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an integrated living unit: an anatomical structure (which may be a subcellular structure, cell, tissue, or organ), or organism over time from an initial condition to a later condition. The biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an anatomical structure from an initial condition to its mature state. This process begins with the formation of the structure and ends with the mature structure, whatever form that may be including its natural destruction. An anatomical structure is any biological entity that occupies space and is distinguished from its surroundings. Anatomical structures can be macroscopic such as a carpel, or microscopic such as an acrosome. The process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. Coordinated organization of groups of cells in the plane of an embryonic epithelium, such that they all orient to similar coordinates.
