(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
The gastrula phase of embryonic development is seen in all animals except the sponges. It follows the blastula phase. The gastrula phase is marked by a dramatic restructuring called gastrulation. After gastrulation is complete, the embryo develops into a neurula.Source: adapted by the editor from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia under a copyleft GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) from the article "Gastrula."
