It all started when the egg and the sperm combined, fusing their nuclei. Through this action, conception occurred, becoming the foundation for a new human to be brought into this world. This was the start of King Philip's life.

After a 2 week period of rapid cell division, a zygote, otherwise known as a fertilized egg, turns into an embryo. Without the fertilization, King Philip wouldn't be here today.

The developing King Philip from ~2 weeks from fertilization to 2 months.

King Philip's placenta comes from the outer cells of the zygote and transfers nutrients and oxygen from his mother to him. This is how King Philip is able to continue developing.

King Phillip's mother is a severe alcoholic who is always drinking. Her heavy drinking proved detrimental at birth, when it was revealed that he was born with an abnormally large head and other deformities.

These are agents, such as chemicals and viruses, that can reach the embryo or fetus during prenatal development. This can be extremely detrimental. King Philip would have a hard time fighting this off, not being fully developed.

As King Philip enters a brand new world, his brain is like a sponge, soaking up all the information he can about his surroundings. He makes vital connections here that could stay with him throughout his lifetime.

When someone strokes the check of King Philip, his natural reaction is to turn inwards, opening his mouth, even if this person is not his mother.

The decreasing responsiveness with repeated stimulation. After looking at the same visual stimulus for a few minutes, King Philip seems to get bored. His attention wanes, and does not react as much to the stimulus. When presented with a new stimulus, he seems to pay attention again. In this way, we can observe what infants see/remember.

Little King Phillip is just like any other, when he sees people or animals, he first notices their face. This commanlity between King Phillip and grown adults demonstrates the innate desire to charcterize objects by face over figure

# data[].attributes.body
In the newborn phase, King Philip developed the human preference to look at things/people from 8-12 inches away. This stems from the connection he made to his mother as he nursed, where his eyes were about 8-12 inches from hers.

# data[].attributes.body
Despite just being born, King Phillip is already equipped with a sense of smell. Within days of his birth, his brain is imprinted with the smell of his mother's body, making it a key signal in the bond between mother and son

# data[].attributes.body
King Philip's behavior changes in an orderly manner due to the processes of biological growth. This credits the physical development of his childhood to nature rather than nurture.

# data[].attributes.body
As King Philip advances into childhood, his neural networks are expanding rapidly. The branching of his neurons allows him to soak up new information and allow him to walk, talk, and remember. His developing frontal lobes are starting to allow him more rational planning. They are developing rapidly from ages 3-6, although they will not be complete until he is 25.

# data[].attributes.body
King Phillips body is like a machine, it has certain tools needed to run it, and some tools/parts are extra and uneeded. Even during infancy, King Phillip's body is selectively severing the unused nueral links that are not needed for the machine to run.

# data[].attributes.body
Some believe that King Philip is developing skills by watching others. However, he is actually developing these skills as his muscles and systems mature. With more developed muscles and systems, he is capable of more, hence, more skills become apparent. For example, his parents believe he is learning to walk because he has seen them walk, but it is really because he is developing the mechanisms that allow his body to balance upright.

# data[].attributes.body
As King Philip gets older and looks back on his childhood, he won't be able to remember much before age 4 or 5. Many of his perceived memories will stem from what he has been told, and he will generally misremember events from this time period. He will not be able to consciously recall much before the time that he is 4 years old.

# data[].attributes.body
No longer is young King Phillip so little and naive. He is beginning to see and feel the passage of time. While not a full grown adult yet, King Phillip has entered the stage of adolescence. He is transitioning from a mere child to adult, and this is mainly marked by puberty, brain development, and the desire to be independent

# data[].attributes.body
King Philip is no longer a child; he has officially begun his adolescent years. He has matured sexually and experienced a surge of hormones. As a result, his parents have seen his moods intensify corresponding to changes within his body. King Philip has grown 5 inches in the past couple of months, and his voice has become deeper.

# data[].attributes.body
King Philip's brain and body are going through a host of changes during adolescence. The neural networks he made as a child are now being pruned, so any neurons or connections he does not continue to use are lost. King Philip now understands why his mother always says "use it or lose it" when she urges him to speak only Spanish at home. If Philip doesn't continue to use these skills, his brain will prune the neurons out that allow him to speak fluently.

Myelin is fatty tissue that forms around axons and speeds nuetransmission. In adolescents like King Phillip, they actually have less myelin in their frontal lobes than adults. So, King Phillip is still devloping myelins, and one day, when he hits his peak myelin number, his frontal lobe will be fully developed

# data[].attributes.body
King Phillip may be maturing/growing into adulthood, but his brain is still developing. The maturation of his frontal lobe, which is vital to the decision making process, lags behind the emotional limbic system. The slow development of this system leaves King Phillip seeking thrills and satisfying his impulses, as he simply is biologically incapable of making some of the wiser decisions that adults may make.

# data[].attributes.body
King Philip's final stages of life span from his early 20s to his death. From his early 20s-30s, he is in early adulthood, then transitions to middle adulthood all the way from 30-65, where he notices a decline in his physical abilities and learns his fertility will decline (although this is more obvious in women). Finally, from 65 to death, he experiences late adulthood.

# data[].attributes.body
King Philip realizes now that he isn't the young man he used to be. He has differed at age 50 from his 25-year old self. King Phillip has entered late adulthood, which is 65 or older. This is the age where most people start considering retirement. It is the age where the body isn't as strong and conditioned, and isn't as fresh as it once was. It is a time where King Phillip can relax and enjoy the rest of his life.

# data[].attributes.body
As King Philip keeps getting older, his visual sharpness diminishes, and distance perception and adaptation to light-level images are less acute. His eye's pupil shrinks and its lens becomes less transparent, reducing the amount of light reaching the retina.

# data[].attributes.body
King Philip is now at the age where is health is very weak. The body's disease-fighting immune system is very poor, making older adults, like King Philip, susceptible to life-threatening ailments, such as cancer and pneumonia. However, due to King Philip's lifetime accumulation of antibodies, people over 65 suffer fewer short-term ailments. Because he had many cold and flu viruses as a child, they can't affect him as much anymore.

# data[].attributes.body
When King Phillip was a bright, young lad, his frontal lobes helped account for his impulsivity. Now, in his later days, atrophy of the inhibition-controlling frontal lobes seemingly explains his occasional blunt questions and comments. King Philip's age also assigns him to aerobic exercise programs that exhibit enhanced memory, sharpened judgement and reduced risks of dementia.

# data[].attributes.body
As King Philip continues to age, he remembers some things well. However his memory only starts remembering events in his life that really sparked his life story, such as his first kiss, first job, first day of college, or the birth of his son. Or historic events such as a presidential election, cold war, civil rights movement, all become pivotal for King Philips astounding life.
