Q. From which embryonic structure develops the vertebral column

NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2020Human Reproduction

Solution:

The notochord develops into the vertebral column in vertebrates. The notochord lies along with the anteroposterior ("head to tail") axis, closer to the dorsal surface of the animal. Notochord is composed of cells derived from the mesoderm.
