WHAT IS ECTODERM, ENDODERM AND MESODERM‽??
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
Ectoderm is one of the three primary germ layers in the very early embryo. The other two layers are the mesoderm (middle layer) and endoderm (most proximal layer), with the ectoderm as the most exterior (or distal) layer. It emerges and originates from the outer layer of germ cells.
The endoderm is an embryonic germ layer that gives rise to tissues that form internal structures and organs. The endoderm is found in both vertebrate and invertebrate embryos, and is responsible for the formation of the gut and associated organs. Endoderm cells are present in both diploblasts and triploblasts.
The mesoderm is a germ layer present in animal embryos that will give rise to specialized tissue types. The mesoderm is one of three germ layers found in triploblastic organisms; it is found between the ectoderm and endoderm. All bilaterally-symmetrical animals are triploblasts, whereas some simpler animals such as cnidaria and ctenophores (jellyfish and comb jellies) have only two germ layers and are diploblasts. The mesoderm plays an important role in animal development. It goes on to form many central structures including the skeletal system, muscular system, and the notochord.
