Summary Introduction

To review:

The cells that give rise to the following parts of the adult nervous system: alar plate cells, basal plate cells, neural crest cells.

Introduction:

There are a total of three main layers of the embryo that gives rise to each and every structure and organ of the human body. The three layers also get divided into various sub-layers that gives rise to the different parts of the human body. The nervous system in the human body originates from the dorsal ectoderm.
