These include the skin, hair, hooves, and certain endocrine glands that secrete hormones into the bloodstream. This layer also forms the central nervous systemthe brain, spinal cord, and all the nerve branches. A group of endodermis cells form a rod-like structure (notochord) that gives rise to the vertebral column. The endoderm forms the digestive system, lungs, liver, and other endocrine glands. The mesoderm layer develops into the skeletal and muscular system of the animal, including bones, muscles, tendons, cartilage, and ligaments.
