The 27 pages that link to Gastrulation, each with the reason it gives.

• Embryonic developmentBroader topic: It converts an early cell assembly into an embryo with foundational tissue layers and axes.

• Developmental biologyBroader topic: This early transformation establishes the basic body plan and germ layers.

• AnimalBroader topic: It establishes the basic tissues from which most animal organs develop.

• Neural crestNarrower topic: Neural crest development follows this earlier reorganization of the embryo.

• NotochordRelated: Gastrulation positions the cells that will form the notochord.

• EmbryologyBroader topic: It establishes the basic tissue layers from which organs develop.

• OrganogenesisNarrower topic: It creates the germ layers from which organ-forming tissues develop.

• ChordateRelated: Chordate tissues and body axes are established through this embryonic reorganization.

• Epithelial–mesenchymal transitionRelated: Cell movements during gastrulation include EMT events that generate mesoderm.

• NeurulationNarrower topic: It precedes neurulation and positions the tissues that will form the nervous system.

• MesodermNarrower topic: During gastrulation, cells move into the embryo to form the mesoderm.

• MorphogenesisBroader topic: Large-scale cell rearrangements establish the body plan and tissue layers.

• Cleavage (embryology)Related: It follows cleavage and transforms the early cell arrangement into a body plan.

• BilateriaRelated: This stage produces the germ-layer arrangement associated with bilaterian development.

• NeurodevelopmentNarrower topic: It precedes neural induction and sets conditions for nervous-system development.

• Germ layerRelated: This process creates the layered organization that defines primary germ layers.

• Conjoined twinsRelated: This stage provides the developmental context for proposed twinning mechanisms.

• PlanulaRelated: Gastrulation produces the layered organization present in a planula.

• DeuterostomeNarrower topic: The traditional distinction between deuterostomes and protostomes concerns events during this process.

• Hans SpemannRelated: The organizer acts during gastrulation, when the embryo’s major axes and tissues take shape.

• Karl Ernst von BaerRelated: It provides a clear example of general embryonic structures becoming organized into distinct layers.

• Inner cell massRelated: The inner cell mass’s embryonic descendants enter this major body-plan-forming process.

• ProtostomeRelated: Blastopore fate is observed during this stage of protostome development.

• BlastulationRelated: It follows blastulation and transforms the blastula into a more complex body plan.

• Animal embryonic developmentBroader topic: Gastrulation converts a ball or sheet of cells into an embryo with distinct tissue layers.

• Human embryonic developmentBroader topic: It converts an initially simple embryo into one with ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm.

• Embryonic structuresRelated: It creates the foundational layers from which embryonic structures develop.
