What is Triploblastic?

Triploblastic is a condition that occurs in the blastula. When it happens, it results in three germ layers. Those layers are the ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm. There is also a fourth layer, but it is set aside in the embryo during the blastula stage.

All four of these layers form during the blastula's stage of gastrulation. Triploblastic also has another meaning, which refers to when the blastoderm is split into layers. Both intermediate and higher animals have triploblastic, which include humans and flatworms. The opposite of triploblastic is diploblastic, which is when there are only two germ layers. Triploblastic derives from diploblastic,
