After fertilization, the zygote undergoes cleavage and forms a blastula with smaller cells. Gastrulation creates germ layers for body tissues. The Spemann organizer prompts ectoderm development into neural tissue, essential for the brain and spinal cord. The tadpole hatches as a complete structure and continues to grow by feeding, incorporating organic matter.
