once the lens has formed, it induces other tissues. One of these responding tissues is the optic vesicle itself; thus, the inducer becomes the induced. Under the influence of factors secreted by the lens, the optic vesicle becomes the optic cup, and the wall of the optic cup differentiates into two layers: the pigmented retina and the neural retina. such interactions are called as-
