gastrulation

[Germ layer differentiation]
Shortly after the blastula is complete, an intense morphogenetic movement called gastrulation rearranges the cells, and the embryo differentiates into three germ layers: inner, middle, and outer. The process of germ layer differentiation begins with the formation of the archenteron, which produces both the inner and outer germ layers.
