Ectoderm
Where is the dermis derived from? 6
Mesoderm
What induces neurulation? 8
The notochord
What is induction? 8
Notochord instruction growth of the rest of the neural plate (neural ectoderm) and neural crest
What is the progression into a functional neural tube? 10
Neural plate –> neural folds –> neural tube
What is the neural plate?
A region of the ectoderm that has been specified to be a part of the nervous system
Prior to neural fold formation what must happen? 10
Neural groove must be in place (think of it as a hinge point)
What is the notochord’s orientation to the neural tube? 11
Notochord is inferior/ventral to the neural tube
After the neural tube has formed what lies superior/dorsal to it? 11
Epidermis
