Increase in structural tissues
Growth
The growth differences of body parts

What are the three main steps of embryogenesis
Gastrulation
Neurulation
Somitogenesis
What are the three germ layers in Gastrulation in order from outer to inner
Ectoderm
Mesoderm
Endoderm
Forms the exoskeleton such as skin, hair, brain and spinal cord
Ectoderm
Develops in organs such as somites which makes skeleton tissue, muscle tissue and connective tissues
Mesoderm
Forms the inner lining of organs such as the liver, pancreas, lungs, bladder and GIT
Endoderm
The organizer of gastrulation
Hensen’s node
Forms the precurosrs to the spinal cord
Neurulation
What are the three results of neurulation
Notochord
Neural tube
Neural fold
Prospective vertebral column
Notochord
Somite organizer
Neural tube
Prospective head
Neural Fold
Form in pairs and is symmetrical
Somitogenesis
Formation of muscular tissue in embryonic development
Myogenesis
Muscle precursor cells that originate in the myotome of somites
Myoblasts
True or False: Some myoblasts migrate to limbs/abdominal area, while other are non-migrating
True
What are the 6 steps of Myogenesis
- Commitment/Determination
- Migration (if needed)
- Proliferation
- Differentiation
- Fusion
- Maturation and Hypertrophy
