State
An animal embryo divides into a hollow blastula, then folds inward during gastrulation, forming layered germ layers that give rise to all adult structures.
Show
Gastrulation in a sea urchin embryo creates a pouch-like archenteron, the precursor to its future digestive cavity.
Watch for
Gastrulation is shared across the animal kingdom, not a trait found only in complex, later-diverging lineages.
