The inturning of an epithelial sheet over the basal surface of an outer layer involved in deuterostomic gastrulation. 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 morphogenesis of the neural fold elevations that results in the movement of the tips of the elevations towards each other in order to fuse. The morphogenetic process by which an epithelial sheet bends along a linear axis and gives rise to a pouch that will form a semicircular canal. The morphogenetic process by which an epithelial sheet bends along a linear axis. The process of folding the neuroepithelium around the medial hinge point to create the neural elevations, and around the lateral hinge points to produce convergence of the folds. The morphogenetic process by which a bud forms from an epithelial sheet. A bud is a protrusion that forms form the sheet by localized folding. The process by which the edges of the neural plate thicken and move up to form a U-shaped structure called the neural groove. Formation of a cup-shaped invagination at the posterior end of the embryo, bringing the posterior midgut and hindgut primordia into the interior. The morphogenetic process by which an epithelial sheet bends along a linear axis that contributes to embryonic heart tube formation. The morphogenetic process by which the myocardium bends along a linear axis and contributes to the process of heart jogging. The infolding of the epithelial sheet into the embryo involved in deuterostomic gastrulation. The process by which the anatomical structures of a tissue are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. 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.
