hypervitaminosis A

21
Q

occurs in the epiblast of the embryonic disk, a
relatively small area of the blastocyst when compared to the extraembryonic trophoblast

A

formation of the primitive streak

22
Q

defines the longitudinal axis of the embryo and indicates the start of germ layer formation.

A

primitive streak

23
Q

The primitive streak presents at its
cranial end the primitive (Hensen’s) node that presents a central deep hole called

somatic mesoderm

26
Q

closely related to the underlying
embryonic endoderm and hypoblast
