  2. Notochord - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notochord

    The hypochord is a transient structure ventral to the notochord, and is primarily responsible for correct development of the dorsal aorta. [13] Notochord flexion, when the notochord bends to form a part of the developing caudal fin, is a hallmark of an early growth stage of some fish. [14] [15] [better source needed]

  3. Germ layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_layer

    The mesoderm germ layer forms in the embryos of triploblastic animals. During gastrulation, some of the cells migrating inward contribute to the mesoderm, an additional layer between the endoderm and the ectoderm. [9] The formation of a mesoderm leads to the development of a coelom. Organs formed inside a coelom can freely move, grow, and ...

  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. Mesoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoderm

    In each side, the mesoderm remains thin, and is known as the lateral plate. The intermediate mesoderm lies between the paraxial mesoderm and the lateral plate. Between days 13 and 15, the proliferation of extraembryonic mesoderm, primitive streak, and embryonic mesoderm take place. The notochord process occurs between days 15 and 17.

  7. Organogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organogenesis

    Mesoderm cells condense to form a rod which will send out signals to redirect the ectoderm cells above. This fold along the neural tube sets up the vertebrate central nervous system. The endoderm is the inner most germ layer of the embryo which gives rise to gastrointestinal and respiratory organs by forming epithelial linings and organs such ...

  8. Somitogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somitogenesis

    The notochord extends from the base of the head to the tail; with it extend thick bands of paraxial mesoderm. [1] As the primitive streak continues to regress, somites form from the paraxial mesoderm by "budding off" rostrally as somitomeres, or whorls of paraxial mesoderm cells, compact and separate into discrete bodies. The periodic nature of ...

  9. Somite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somite

    The mesoderm at either side of the neural tube is called paraxial mesoderm. It is distinct from the mesoderm underneath the neural tube, which is called the chordamesoderm that becomes the notochord. The paraxial mesoderm is initially called the "segmental plate" in the chick embryo or the "unsegmented mesoderm" in other vertebrates.
