  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. 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.

  4. Development of the nervous system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_the_nervous...

    The dorsal half is controlled by the ectoderm plate, which flanks either side of the neural plate. [16] Ectoderm follows a default pathway to become neural tissue. Evidence for this comes from single, cultured cells of ectoderm, which go on to form neural tissue. This is postulated to be because of a lack of BMPs, which are blocked by the ...

  5. 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]

  6. Organogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organogenesis

    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 as the liver, lungs, and pancreas. [5] The mesoderm or middle germ layer of the embryo will form the blood, heart, kidney, muscles, and connective tissues. [5]

  7. 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

  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. Development of the nervous system in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_the_nervous...

    The development of the nervous system in humans, or neural development, or neurodevelopment involves the studies of embryology, developmental biology, and neuroscience.These describe the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which the complex nervous system forms in humans, develops during prenatal development, and continues to develop postnatally.
