Animation begins with ventral view of embryo.

Ventral view of the embryo from the yolk sac side (edge of model shows cut yolk sac). View shows endoderm lining the yolk sac and midline region of gastrulation (caudal) and axial process (cranial).
Lateral view shows extra-embryonic mesoderm covering the yolk sac and covering the amniotic sac.
