organogenesis
Organogenesis is the process by which the organs of an organism develop from the embryonic tissues. This complex process occurs after the formation of the three primary germ layers: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. Each layer gives rise to specific organs and structures, ensuring that the body is properly formed and functional.
During organogenesis, cells differentiate and organize into specific structures, such as the heart, lungs, and kidneys. This process is crucial for the development of multicellular organisms, including humans. Proper organogenesis is essential for overall health, as any disruptions can lead to congenital anomalies or organ dysfunction.
