| NP: The amniotic cavity is sealed off with now three
cavities - amniotic, exocoelom and ectoplacental cleft. The neural
plate is defined anteriorly and the head process is developing.
In the midline, sub-adjacent to the neural groove, the notochodal
plate is visible.
LNP: The allantoic bud elongates.
EHF: The rostral of the neural plate begins to enlarge to form
the head folds.
LHF: Head folds continue to enlarge and the foregut pocket begins
to form.
