The development of the notochord is important because: -it induces the formation of vertebral bodies, it forms the nucleus pulposus of each intervertebral disk in a newborn, -it induces the overlying embryonic ectoderm to thicken and form the neural plate (the primordium of CNS), -it is the future cardiogenic area

Why does Angiogenesis occur so early (around day 16)?

The early formation of the cardiovascular system is correlated with the absence of a significant amount of yolk in the ovum and yolk sac (which was used to nourish the baby in the first 2 weeks), and the consequent urgent need for blood vessels to bring oxygen and nourishment to the embryo from the maternal circulation through the placenta.
