Some individuals and even particular tissues within certain individuals will differ in the proportion of mitochondria carrying a mutant allele. Thus, the variable phenotype of MERRF can be caused by differing proportions of mutant mitochondria.fering proportions of mutant mitochondria.)

Epiblast cells then migrate along the primitive streak and settle between the epiblast and hypoblast, forming three distinct layers that make up the trilaminar disc. At the end of gastrulation, the trilaminar germ disc consists of three germ layers involved in organogenesis: the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm.sis: the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm.)
