Question
Chapter 23, Problem 6LTB
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The early embryo differentiates into a structure called the gastrula, which is composed of three-layers, i.e. ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. The process of differentiating into the three-layered structure is called gastrulation.
