Blastogenesis is the process of formation and development of an embryo. During the process of blastogenesis, cell division, formation of tissues and organs, and development of the nervous system occur. Blastogenesis begins with the fertilization of an egg by a sperm and continues until the birth of a child.
Blastogenesis includes several stages:
- Fertilization. The fertilized egg begins to divide, forming a zygote.
- Splitting up. The zygote divides into several cells. This process is called crushing.
- Gastrulation. The cells form two plates - endoderm and ectoderm. Then they begin to move towards each other, forming a gastrula.
- Neurulation. The gastrula forms the neural plate, which then transforms into the neural tube.
- Organogenesis. Organs are formed from various tissues.
The process of blastogenesis is very important for the development of living organisms. It allows you to create new cells and tissues that are necessary for the growth and development of the body.
