The process by which the anatomical structures of a tube are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. Epithelial and endothelial tubes transport gases, liquids and cells from one site to another and form the basic structure of many organs and tissues, with tube shape and organization varying from the single-celled excretory organ in Caenorhabditis elegans to the branching trees of the mammalian kidney and insect tracheal system. The process by which the anatomical structures of the hindgut are generated and organized, during the embryonic phase. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process by which the anatomical structures of the Malpighian tubule are generated and organized. This process takes place entirely during the embryonic phase. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. A Malpighian tubule is a fine, thin-walled excretory tubule in insects which leads into the posterior part of the gut. The process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized during the embryonic phase. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The embryonic phase begins with zygote formation. The end of the embryonic phase is organism-specific. For example, it would be at birth for mammals, larval hatching for insects and seed dormancy in plants. Any process that modulates the size of an anatomical structure. Ensuring that a tube is of the correct length and diameter. Tube size must be maintained not only during tube formation, but also throughout development and in some physiological processes. Ensuring that a Malpighian tubule is the correct length and diameter. Ensuring that the Malpighian tubule is the correct width. Malpighian tubules have a uniform circumference along their length; the circumference of the tubes is eight cells during the time the cells are dividing, after which the cells rearrange producting tubes with a cirumference of two cells.
