Germ layers:

  1. A group of cells in an embryo is known as the germ layer.
  2. These layers associate with each other as the development of the embryo takes place and will finally give rise to all the organs and tissues of an organism.
  3. It is any of the three primary cell layers produced in the initial stages of embryonic development, comprising the ectoderm (outer layer), the endoderm (inner layer), and the mesoderm (middle layer).
  4. The most common kind of cell type of connective tissues are found all through the body, and the main source of the extensive extracellular matrix is the fibroblasts.
  5. They are the mainstay of the most essential tissue, which keeps the body of a human being together, that is, the connective tissue.
  6. They are the mesenchymal cells, which are derived from the embryonic mesoderm tissue, and they are not differentiated terminally.
