Document Summary
Nuclei: group of cell bodies: gray matter. Induction: a process where a part of the embryo sends signals to other parts of the tissue to make changes. Ectoderm: outside layer of the embryo and develops into skin and brain. Mesoderm: connective tissue (bones, ligaments, tissue) o. The neural plate: neural tube and neural crest. As the neural tube closes, it separates from the ectodermal surface: tube forms cns. During fusion, groups of cells from the crest of each neural fold (neural crest cells) separates from neural tube: form pns. The caudal (tail) part of the neural tube (spinal cord and brain) differentiates into 2 plates. The sulcus limitans divides the lateral wall of the neural tube into 2 halves: dorsal (back) half forms an alar plate. Becomes cells concerned with sensory processing (sensory neurons: ventral (front) half forms a basal plate.
