At which embryonic stage are the primary germ layers first clearly established in animals?
- Morula
- Blastula
- Gastrula
- Neurula
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: C. Gastrula
The germ layers are established during gastrulation, so the correct stage is the gastrula.
This is the stage at which ectoderm, endoderm, and in triploblastic animals mesoderm become organized.
