Tiny spider embryos unlock the mystery of body building in nature

A recent study has shed light on the segmented body plan of arthropods, including insects and spiders, which has intrigued biologists for years. By utilizing advanced single-cell technologies, researchers have been able to explore the developmental origins of these creatures at a genomic level, revealing insights that could enhance our understanding of evolution and biology. This breakthrough not only fills a gap in our knowledge but also opens new avenues for research in developmental biology.
