  3. Germ cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_cell

    Somatic cells are all the other cells that form the building blocks of the body and they only divide by mitosis. The lineage of germ cells is called the germline. Germ cell specification begins during cleavage in many animals or in the epiblast during gastrulation in birds and mammals. After transport, involving passive movements and active ...

  4. Germ layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_layer

    The endoderm consists at first of flattened cells, which subsequently become columnar. It forms the epithelial lining of the whole of the digestive tract except part of the mouth and pharynx and the terminal part of the rectum (which are lined by involutions of the ectoderm). It also forms the lining cells of all the glands which open into the ...

  5. Ectoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ectoderm

    The ectoderm is one of the three primary germ layers formed in early embryonic development. It is the outermost layer, and is superficial to the mesoderm (the middle layer) and endoderm (the innermost layer). [1] It emerges and originates from the outer layer of germ cells.

  6. Germline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germline

    The mutation frequencies for cells in different stages of gametogenesis are about 5 to 10-fold lower than in somatic cells both for spermatogenesis [18] and oogenesis. [19] The lower frequencies of mutation in germline cells compared to somatic cells appears to be due to more efficient DNA repair of DNA damages, particularly homologous ...

    The Human Cell Atlas project, which started in 2016, had as one of its goals to "catalog all cell types (for example, immune cells or brain cells) and sub-types in the human body". [13] By 2018, the Human Cell Atlas description based the project on the assumption that "our characterization of the hundreds of types and subtypes of cells in the ...

  8. Histogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogenesis

    Histogenesis is the formation of different tissues from undifferentiated cells. [1] These cells are constituents of three primary germ layers , the endoderm , mesoderm , and ectoderm . The science of the microscopic structures of the tissues formed within histogenesis is termed histology .

  9. Mesoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoderm

    The prechordal cells migrate to the midline to form the notochordal plate. The chordamesoderm is the central region of trunk mesoderm. [4] This forms the notochord, which induces the formation of the neural tube, and establishes the anterior-posterior body axis. The notochord extends beneath the neural tube from the head to the tail.
