They are on each side They are on each side of the longtudinal of the longtudinal midline midline (Neural (Neural Groove).Groove).
NEURAL TUBENEURAL TUBE
It is formed from the It is formed from the apposition and apposition and fusion of the neural fusion of the neural folds which seal the folds which seal the neural groove and neural groove and create the tubecreate the tube..
FOURTH WEEKFOURTH WEEK
The neural tube is The neural tube is completed and completed and transformed into the transformed into the adult adult CNSCNS..
This growth is maximal at This growth is maximal at the rostral part which the rostral part which becomes the becomes the brainbrain..
The caudal portion The caudal portion becomes the becomes the spinal cordspinal cord..
The axis of the neural tube The axis of the neural tube (neuroaxis) is (neuroaxis) is straightstraight..
NEURAL GROOVENEURAL GROOVE
