The germ layers begin to develop from the fourth to the seventh week, in this period one has an embryo. All cell types will derive from these layers called ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm.
Mesoderm which is the middle layer of the embryo forms the dermis, smooth and skeletal muscles, the circulatory system: heart, blood vessels, lymphatic tissue, connective tissue; the skeletal system: bones and cartilage; and the excretory and reproductive system: genitals, kidneys, urethra, bladder and gonads.
The intermediate mesoderm connects the paraxial mesoderm with the lateral plate, eventually it differentiates into urogenital structures consisting of the kidneys, gonads, their associated ducts, and the adrenal glands.
The nucleus is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells. Inside its fully enclosed nuclear membrane, it contains the majority of the cell's genetic material. This material is organized as DNA molecules, along with a variety of proteins, to form chromosomes.
