Bronchial tree of the human embryo: Categorization of the branching mode as monopodial and dipodial.
Some human organs are composed of bifurcated structures. Two simple branching modes-monopodial and dipodial-have been proposed. With monopodial branching, child branches extend from the sidewall of the parent branch. With dipodial branching, the tip of the bronchus bifurcates. However, the branching...
