What Are The Stages of Cell Division? Describe Them:: Biology - Reproduction

The document discusses various stages of cell division, meiosis, early human development, and key terms. It provides descriptions of the stages of mitosis and meiosis, including what occurs in each phase. It also defines terms like morula, blastula, blastocoele, and describes the three germ layers that form during gastrulation.

What are the four stages of early development?
Describe them:
Cleavage: Mitotic divisions
Implantation: Embryo implants during blastula stage
Gastrulation: Ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm
Neurulation: Germ layers develop a nervous system
Biology – Reproduction
Describe what occurs in each stage of gastrulation:
Ectoderm: Nervous system, epidermis, lens of eye, and
inner ear
Endoderm: lining of digestive tract, lungs, liver and
pancreas
Mesoderm: muscles, skeleton, circulatory system, gonads,
and kidney
Biology – Reproduction
What is a morula?
A solid ball of cells resulting from division of a fertilized
ovum, and from which a blastula is formed
Biology – Reproduction
What is a blastula?
A hollow sphere of cells, referred to as blastomeres,
surrounding an inner fluid-filled cavity called the
blastocoele formed during early stages of embryonic
development
Biology – Reproduction
What is a blastocoele?
