Difference between gastrulation in Xenopus and sea urchin;

I. In Xenopus, formation of blastopore: mesoderm and endoderm move inside by involution over blastopore lip.

II. In sea urchin, formation of blastopore: mesodermal cells migrate into the interior; endoderm moves inside by invagination of the epithelial sheet.

Choose right statement about cleavage pattern and gastrulation movements;

1.At the end of cleavage the animal embryo is essentially a closed sheet of cells, which is often in the form of a sphere enclosing a fluid-filled interior. Gastrulation, strictly the formation of the gut, converts this sheet into a solid three-dimensional embryonic animal body. 

2.During cleavage, cells move into the interior of the embryo, and the regions of endoderm. and mesoderm. which were originally adjacent in the cell sheet, take up their appropriate positions in the embryo.

3. Gastrulation results from a well- defined spatio-temporal pattern of change in cell shape, cell movement, and change in cell adhesiveness, the main forces of which are generated by localized contractions.

Splitting of one cellular sheet into two more or less parallel sheets. While on a cellular basis it resembles ingression, the result is the formation of a new (additional) epithelial sheet of cells, choose right gastrulation movement;
