Morphogenetic Movements in Mesenchyme | Gastrulation | Embryology

Immigration of mesodermal cells from the primitive streak in amniotes and migra­tion of mesenchyme cells in sea urchin gastrulation can be regarded as examples of an important step in morphogenesis – the creation of mesenchyme-type tissues, which are a new structural element of an animal's body. The mesenchyme cells are not linked together, as are epithelial cells. They are free [...]
