  2. 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.

  3. Germ layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_layer

    The ectoderm generates the outer layer of the embryo, and it forms from the embryo's epiblast. [13] The ectoderm develops into the surface ectoderm, neural crest, and the neural tube. [14] The surface ectoderm develops into: epidermis, hair, nails, lens of the eye, sebaceous glands, cornea, tooth enamel, the epithelium of the mouth and nose.

  4. Endoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endoderm

    Endoderm is the innermost of the three primary germ layers in the very early embryo. The other two layers are the ectoderm (outside layer) and mesoderm (middle layer). [ 1 ] Cells migrating inward along the archenteron form the inner layer of the gastrula , which develops into the endoderm.

  5. List of human cell types derived from the germ layers

    This is a list of cells in humans derived from the three embryonic germ layers – ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. Cells derived from ectoderm. Surface ectoderm

  6. Animal embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_embryonic_development

    The blastoderm now consists of three layers, an outer ectoderm, a middle mesoderm, and an inner endoderm; each has distinctive characteristics and gives rise to certain tissues of the body. For many mammals, it is sometime during formation of the germ layers that implantation of the embryo in the uterus of the mother occurs. [18] [20]

  7. Organogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organogenesis

    The endoderm of vertebrates produces tissue within the lungs, thyroid, and pancreas. The mesoderm aids in the production of cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, tissues within the kidneys, and red blood cells. The ectoderm produces tissues within the epidermis and aids in the formation of neurons within the brain, and melanocytes.

  8. Histogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogenesis

    The endoderm is one of the germ layers formed during animal embryogenesis. Cells migrating inward along the archenteron form the inner layer of the gastrula , which develops into the endoderm . Initially, the endoderm consists of flattened cells, which subsequently become columnar...

  9. Face and neck development of the human embryo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_and_neck_development...

    The face and neck development of the human embryo refers to the development of the structures from the third to eighth week that give rise to the future head and neck.They consist of three layers, the ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm, which form the mesenchyme (derived form the lateral plate mesoderm and paraxial mesoderm), neural crest and neural placodes (from the ectoderm).
