what is NOT something the mesoderm develop into

A

digestive system

44
Q

what are two advantages to having a body cavity

A

1) provides space for visceral
2) separates muscles of gut from muscles of body wall

45
Q

what does cephalization mean?

A

most nervous and sensory structure are in the anterior end
