Neurulation is the process that forms the neural tube and initiates nervous‑system development. It involves neural‑plate folding, tube closure, and the emergence of neural crest cells.
Somite formation is the rhythmic process that produces the segmental units of the vertebrate body. This article explains the segmentation clock, somite differentiation, and the development of the axial skeleton and musculature.
