2. Organogenesis
• Organogenesis is the process by which the
ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm develop
into the internal organs of the organism.
• Cells of each germ layer proliferate, migrate,
reaggregate and differentiate into various
tissues that form the organs (organogenesis)

4. How does it occur?
• The germ layers in organogenesis differ by
three processes:
• folds,
• splits, and
• Condensation Cells of each germ layer
proliferate, migrate, reaggregate and
differentiate into various tissues that form the
organs (organogenesis)

5. When does it occur?
• Internal organs initiate development in
humans within the 3rd to 8th weeks in utero.
