Abstract

In the 3rd week of GA, onset of human organogenesis starts when the paraxial mesoderm organizes into segments called somitomeres (somites). At that period, 3 germ layers comprising of the ectoderm, the mesoderm and the endoderm causes the development of specific tissues and organs [1]. First somites present in the cephalic region of the embryo at roughly the 20th day of development and their development proceeds cephalocaudal at a rate of approximate 3pairs/day. By the end of 5th wk the embryo has 42-44 pairs of somites, these consist of 4 occipetal, 8 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral and 8-10 coccygeal pairs [1].
