  2. Mesoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoderm

    The mesoderm is the middle layer of the three germ layers that develops during gastrulation in the very early development of the embryo of most animals. The outer layer is the ectoderm, and the inner layer is the endoderm. [1] [2] The mesoderm forms mesenchyme, mesothelium and coelomocytes. Mesothelium lines coeloms.

  3. Lateral plate mesoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_plate_mesoderm

    The lateral plate mesoderm is separated from the paraxial mesoderm by a narrow region of intermediate mesoderm. The mesoderm is the middle layer of the three germ layers, between the outer ectoderm and inner endoderm. During the third week of embryonic development the lateral plate mesoderm splits into two layers forming the intraembryonic coelom.

  4. 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. Epiblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiblast

    It drives the embryo proper through its differentiation into the three primary germ layers, ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm, during gastrulation. The amniotic ectoderm and extraembryonic mesoderm also originate from the epiblast. The other layer of the inner cell mass, the hypoblast, gives rise to the yolk sac, which in turn gives rise to the ...

  6. Organogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organogenesis

    Organogenesis is the phase of embryonic development that starts at the end of gastrulation and continues until birth.During organogenesis, the three germ layers formed from gastrulation (the ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm) form the internal organs of the organism.

  7. Histogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogenesis

    The mesoderm germ layer forms in the embryos of animals and mammals more complex than cnidarians, making them triploblastic. During gastrulation, some of the cells migrating inward to form the endoderm form an additional layer between the endoderm and the ectoderm. A theory suggests that this key innovation evolved hundreds of millions of years ...

  8. Intermediate mesoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermediate_mesoderm

    Intermediate mesoderm or intermediate mesenchyme is a narrow section of the mesoderm (one of the three primary germ layers) located between the paraxial mesoderm and the lateral plate of the developing embryo. [1] The intermediate mesoderm develops into vital parts of the urogenital system (kidneys, gonads and respective tracts).

  9. Enterocoely - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enterocoely

    Enterocoelom (adjective forms: enterocoelic and enterocoelous) describes both the process by which some animal embryos develop and the origin of the cells involved. In enterocoely, a mesoderm (middle layer) is formed in a developing embryo, in which the coelom appears from pouches growing and separating from the digestive tract (also known as the embryonic gut, or archenteron).
