Ecto/Endo/Mesoderm

Recommended Posts

Memorize the ones that seem counter-intuitive.

 

For example, neurons originate from the ectoderm.

 

Some examples, like epidermal cells orginating from the ectoderm and skeletal/cardiac muscle cells originating from the mesoderm, seem logical, so these don't necessarily need to be committed to memory.

 

A nice schematic always helps:
