Embryonic induction is a biological process where one group of cells influences the development of another group of cells during embryonic development. This interaction helps determine the fate of the cells, guiding them to become specific tissues or organs. Induction is crucial for proper formation and organization of the embryo. The process often involves signaling molecules, such as morphogens, which are released by inducing cells and received by target cells. These signals trigger changes in gene expression, leading to differentiation. Embryonic induction plays a vital role in shaping the overall structure and function of an organism as it develops.
