Solution

The correct option is C Gastrulation
Morphogenetic movement is caused by large-scale and dynamic movement of embryonic epithelial cells.
It rearranges the distribution of embryonic cells, thereby allowing the interaction between germ layers that previously existed separately.
The first morphogenetic movement triggered is gastrulation, which forms the future digestive tract.
So the correct option is 'Gastrulation'.
