  2. Animal embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_embryonic_development

    The germ layers are referred to as the ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm. In diploblastic animals only the ectoderm and the endoderm are present. [8] * Among different animals, different combinations of the following processes occur to place the cells in the interior of the embryo: Epiboly – expansion of one cell sheet over other cells [9]

  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 ...

  4. 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.

  5. 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 .

  6. 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.

  7. Triploblasty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triploblasty

    Triploblasty is a condition of the gastrula in which there are three primary germ layers: the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. Germ cells are set aside in the embryo at the blastula stage, and are incorporated into the gonads during organogenesis. The germ layers form during the gastrulation of the blastula.

  8. Human embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_embryonic_development

    The epiblast keeps moving and forms a second layer, the mesoderm. The epiblast has now differentiated into the three germ layers of the embryo, so that the bilaminar disc is now a trilaminar disc, the gastrula. The three germ layers are the ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm, and are formed as three

  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).
