<b>Histological study on the prenatal development of compartment 1 of the stomach of the camel (<i>Camelus dromedarius</i>)</b>

Compartment 1 of the dromedary camel undergoes marked histological differentiation throughout gestation, evolving from a simple three-layered wall to a highly specialized organ. Notably, the apical folds develop lateral vertical projections in the glandular region where the stratified epithelium transitions into the pseudostratified epithelium, demonstrating regional specialization and functional differentiation.
