A developmental process by which a progressive change in the state of some part of an organism specifically contributes to its ability to form offspring. The differential increase in size or mass of the prostate gland that contributes to the gland attaining its form. The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell, where the increase in size or mass has the specific outcome of the progression of the organism over time from one condition to another. The increase in size or mass of the prostate gland where the increase in size or mass has the specific outcome of the progression of the gland, from its formation to its mature state. Morphogenesis of an organ. An organ is defined as a tissue or set of tissues that work together to perform a specific function or functions. Morphogenesis is the process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that work together to perform a specific function or functions. The process by which the anatomical structures of a prostate gland are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the prostate gland over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The prostate gland is a partly muscular, partly glandular body that is situated near the base of the mammalian male urethra and secretes an alkaline viscid fluid which is a major constituent of the ejaculatory fluid. The developmental growth process by which solid chords of prostate epithelium increase in length. The process by which the anatomical structures of a gland are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The increase in size of the prostatic bud as it forms. The process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The increase in size or mass of an anatomical structure that contributes to the structure attaining its shape.
