72
explain competence vs specification
competence has to come first Liver: **spectum transversum produces Bmps** which binds to endoderm and makes it **competent** to bind with Fgfs (competence get it ready to bind to something) once the endoderm is competent **cardiac mesoderm produces Fgf** and the competent endoderm binds to these signals which triggers the competent endoderm to **specify** into liver
