Popis: The youngest human embryos in which cutaneous development was observed were about 4–5 weeks old. At that point, the embryo’s external surface is covered by the ectoderm, a monolayer of cells stretching over a mesenchymal mantle. It is partially overlaid by the “periderm,” a second layer of bulky elements endowed with microvilli. This situation and ensuing events are presented in Fig. 1.1.
