Blastocyst in crosssection: Cells of inner cell
mass will give rise to the
gastrula, outer cells will
become apart of the
placenta and other
membranes.

2. The formation of 3 germ layers
a. Endoderm
• Inner-most layer

b. Mesoderm
• Middle layer
• (internal organs)
c. Ectoderm
• Outer-most layer
• (skin and nervous system)

1. Once 3 germ cell layers formed in gastrula,
then . . . Cell differentiation (or giving cells
specific jobs) begins . . .
a. 1st = neurulation
i. Development of nervous system
ii. Occurs soon after gastrulation is
complete
b. Organogenesis = organs start to form

A. Membranes form

= unspecialized cells that have the potential

1. Totipotent Stem Cells
These are the most versatile of the stem cell types. When a sperm cell and an
egg cell unite, they form a one-celled fertilized egg. This cell is totipotent,
meaning it has the potential to give rise to any and all human cells, such as
brain, liver, blood or heart cells. It can even give rise to an entire functional
organism. The first few cell divisions in embryonic development produce more
totipotent cells. After four days of embryonic cell division, the cells begin to
specialize into pluripotent stem cells.
2. Pluripotent Stem Cells
These cells are like totipotent stem cells in that they can give rise to all tissue
types. Unlike totipotent stem cells, however, they cannot give rise to an entire
organism. On the fourth day of development, the embryo forms into two layers,
an an outer layer which will become the placenta, and an inner mass which will
form the tissues of the developing human body. These inner cells, though they
can form nearly any human tissue, cannot do so without the outer layer; so are
not totipotent, but pluripotent. As these pluripotent stem cells continue to divide,
they begin to specialize further.

3. Multipotent Stem Cells
These are less plastic and more differentiated stem cells. They give rise
to a limited range of cells within a tissue type. The offspring of the
pluripotent cells become the progenitors of such cell lines as blood cells,
skin cells and nerve cells. At this stage, they are multipotent. They can
become one of several types of cells within a given organ. For example,
multipotent blood stem cells can develop into red blood cells, white
blood cells or platelets
4. Adult Stem Cells
An adult stem cell is a multipotent stem cell in adult humans that is used
to replace cells that have died or lost function. It is an undifferentiated
cell present in differentiated tissue. It renews itself and can specialize to
yield all cell types present in the tissue from which it originated. So far,
adult stem cells have been identified for many different tissue types
such as hematopoetic (blood), neural, endothelial, muscle,
mesenchymal, gastrointestinal, and epidermal cells.
