organdannelsesprocessen
Organdannelsesprocessen, also known as organogenesis, refers to the complex process by which the internal organs of an embryo develop. This crucial stage of embryonic development follows gastrulation, where the three primary germ layers – ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm – are established. Each germ layer gives rise to specific organ systems.
The ectoderm primarily forms the nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord, as well as the
Organogenesis involves intricate processes of cell division, migration, differentiation, and programmed cell death (apoptosis). Cells within
The precise timing and coordination of these events are critical. Errors during organogenesis can lead to congenital
