The cells of the inner cell mass (embryoblast), which are known as human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), will further differentiate to form four structures: the amnion, the yolk sac, the allantois, and the embryo itself. Human embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, that is, they can differentiate into any of the cell types present in the adult ...
Drawing of the head of a four-week-old human embryo. From Gray's Anatomy. Embryo drawing is the illustration of embryos in their developmental sequence. In plants and animals, an embryo develops from a zygote, the single cell that results when an egg and sperm fuse during fertilization. In animals, the zygote divides repeatedly to form a ball ...

Image showing trophoblast differentiated into the two layers of cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast during implantation. It is the outer layer of the trophoblasts and actively invades the uterine wall, during implantation, rupturing maternal capillaries and thus establishing an interface between maternal blood and embryonic extracellular fluid, facilitating passive exchange of material ...
Other cells migrate through the caudal part of the primitive line and form the lateral mesoderm, and those cells migrating by the most caudal part contribute to the extraembryonic mesoderm. [11] [15] The embryonic disc begins flat and round, but eventually elongates to have a wider cephalic part and narrow-shaped caudal end. [10]
The first cell division of a zygote is asymmetric, resulting in an embryo with one small cell (the apical cell) and one large cell (the basal cell). [22] The small, apical cell will eventually give rise to most of the structures of the mature plant, such as the stem, leaves, and roots. [ 23 ]
The bilaminar embryonic disc, bilaminar blastoderm or embryonic disc is the distinct two-layered structure of cells formed in an embryo.In the development of the human embryo this takes place by day eight.
Outline of human anatomy; Cell types. by origin; This is a list of cells in humans derived from the three embryonic germ layers – ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm.
