45
Q

Which mesentery is closer to the aorta/notochord/DHNT?

A

Dorsal mesentery

46
Q

Explain neurulation.

A

Single layer of epidermal ectoderm with thickening in the middle (neural plate - neural ectoderm)
Plate starts to fold and neural folds move toward each other and create a neural groove
(just beneath the neural folds is neural crest tissue)
Neural folds come together and create a tube, which separates from epidermal ectoderm
Becomes Dorsal Hollow Nerve Tube (still neural ectoderm)
