Embryo

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

An embryo was a stage of Human development and one of its earliest stages. An embryologist studied embryos and their development. An embryo developed naturally as part of Human reproduction, but could also be stimulated to grow artificially via cloning. Embryos of clone troopers were grown and monitored on Kamino in strictly controlled environments. When Obi-Wan Kenobi first inspected the Kamino cloning facilities, he felt waves of life-energy emanating from the countless embryos surrounding him.

Embryonic development was not limited to Humans. Zonama Sekot referred to its developing seed-ships as "embryos." Nen Yim vivisected the embryo of a kul.
