Regarding the lateral mesoderm is divided into two distinct layers by the following of:
Answer: Intra-embryonic coelm
Explanation
During embryonic development, the lateral mesoderm is divided into two distinct layers by the intra-embryonic coelom
The intra-embryonic coelom is a fluid-filled cavity within the lateral plate mesoderm.
As the embryo develops, the coelom divides the lateral plate mesoderm into two layers.
- the somatic mesoderm (which lies adjacent to the ectoderm)
- the splanchnic mesoderm (which lies adjacent to the endoderm).
This division is crucial for the formation of organs and structures in the developing embryo.
