Study Notes

Invagination in Embryonic Development

  • Invagination refers to the infolding of the cell sheath into the embryo.
  • Invagination is observed during embryonic development in Sea Urchin.
  • After Invagination in Sea Urchin embryonic development, the resulting layer formed is the Archenteron.
  • The opposite process of Invagination is Evagination.
  • Invagination plays a crucial role in the developmental process of Gastrulation.

Cell Sheath Movements During Embryogenesis

  • Invagination: Infolding of cell sheath into the embryo, observed in Sea Urchin endoderm.
  • Involution: Inturning of the sheath over the basal surface of the outer layer, seen in Amphibian mesoderm.
  • Ingression: Migration of individual cells into the embryo, exemplified by Drosophila neuroblasts and Sea urchin mesoderm.
  • Delamination: Splitting of one sheath into two, characteristic of Mammalian development.
  • Epiboly: Expansion of one cell sheath over others, observed in Amphibian ectoderm.
