Solution

The correct option is A Gastrulation
The process in which the germ layers are formed during embryonic development is called gastrulation. The zygote undergoes cleavage and forms a mass of cells that gets arranged into three layers called germ layers. These three germ layers are ectoderm, endoderm and mesoderm which further undergo the process of organogenesis giving rise to various organs. Thus the correct answer is option C.
