The process whose specific outcome is the progression of an epithelium over time, from its formation to the mature structure. An epithelium is a tissue that covers the internal or external surfaces of an anatomical structure. The process by which the anatomical structures of an epithelial sheet are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. An epithelial sheet is a flat surface consisting of closely packed epithelial cells. The process of apical-basal elongation of individual ectodermal cells during the formation of the neural placode. The process by which the neural plate is shaped by the intrinsic movement of the epidermal and neural plate regions. The process by which the anatomical structures of a tissue are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The expansion of one cell sheet over other cells involved in deuterostomic gastrulation. The process by which the anatomical structures of epithelia are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. An epithelium consists of closely packed cells arranged in one or more layers, that covers the outer surfaces of the body or lines any internal cavity or tube. The process by which the anatomical structure of the pericardium is generated and organized.
