  1. Ovi

    Oval~having the general form, shape, or outline of an egg; egg-shaped.

    Yolk came out of the oval shaped egg i cracked.

    Oviform~having a shape resembling that of an egg

    The eggs that I bought were oviform.

    Hist

    Histology~the branch of biology dealing with the study of tissues

    We learned what histology meant in my 6th grade class.

    Histogenesis~the origin and development of tissues.

    When my body was being formed histogenesis occured.

    oviparous-egg laying
    Dogs are oviparous.
    oval-ellipse: a closed plane curve resulting from the intersection of a circular cone and a plane cutting completely through it
    In art we drew ovals.

    When my mom had to go to the emergency room we flew in by a helicopter.

    We saw many chiropteran in the cave.
    histology-the branch of biology that studies the microscopic structure of animal
    or plant tissues
    We studied histology in science today.
    histolysis-is the decay and dissolution of organic tissues or of blood.
    Histolysis is one of our vocab words, we learned that it means the decay of blood.
