Introduction
Human embryonic stage 9 occurs during week 3 between 19 to 21 days. The embryo is now 1.5 to 2.5 mm in size and somites have begun to form and number between 1 to 3 somite pairs during this stage. The unlabeled images are initially displayed to allow you to explore the embryo for yourself, linked labelled versions are also available for some images.
Events
Ectoderm - Neural plate brain region continues to expand, neural plate begins folding over the notochord.
Mesoderm - Paraxial mesoderm segmentation into somites begins (1 - 3 somite pairs), Prechordal splanchnic mesoderm begins to form the cardiogenic region, from which the primordial heart will develop.
Endoderm - Notochordal plate still visible which will form the notochord. Endoderm is still widely open to the yolk sac and germ cells form part of this layer. Extra-embryonic mesoderm on the yolk sac surface begins to form "blood islands".
Identify
Neural groove and neural folds, the mesoderm, which segments beside the neural groove to form somites but extends laterally to margin of embryonic disc lateral plate mesoderm, where it merges with the covering extraembryonic mesoderm.
The intra-embryonic coelom develops in the middle of the lateral plate mesoderm. Note amniotic ectoderm covered by extramebryonic mesoderm (empty spaces above and below the mesoderm are artefacts, as are the lateral folds in the ectoderm).
The first two images using bright field microscopy approximate the orientation of the scanning electron micrographs below. There are additional scanning electron micrographs showing selected features in detail.
