Textbook Question
Chapter 52, Problem 3U
Gastrulation is a critical event during development. Why?
a. Gastrulation converts a hollow ball of cells into a bilaterally symmetrical structure.
b. Gastrulation causes the formation of a primitive digestive tract.
c. Gastrulation causes the blastula to develop a dorsal–ventral axis.
d. All of these are significant events that occur during gastrulation.

Which of the following statements about gastrulation is correct?
A. During gastrulation, the contents of cell nuclei begin to vary so that they can start to perform different fucntions.
B. During gastrulation, cells differentiate so that they can start to perform different functions.

Gastrulation produces the mesoderm to form the lining of the digestive tract.C. Gastrulation provides the mechanisms whereby cells can form the neural tube.D. Gastrulation produces the endoderm through invagination of the blastula.

a. Cadherins, but not integrins play a role in gastrulation.
b. Gastrulation creates the primary germ layers
c. Gastrulation requires cells to change their gene expression.
d. Body axes are stabilized (made permanent) during gastrulation.
