Study Notes
Microscopic Image of a Chordate
- Image shows a cross-section of a chordate embryo
- Note that the structures labeled are: Neural tube, Notochord, Digestive Tract, and Somites
- These structures are key features of chordates
- The neural tube is a prominent structure, centrally located.
- The notochord is a rod-like structure located just beneath the neural tube.
- The digestive tract is a tube-like structure, often a lighter color, located towards the bottom of the image.
- Somites are segmented blocks of tissue visible along the body of the embryo.
