A schematic cross-section of the embryonic neural tube shows a central lumen (neurocoel) lined by neuroepithelium, bordered dorsally by alar plates and ventrally by basal plates, with roof and floor plates at the midlines. In the biological hierarchy, this neural primordium is a tissue-level structure within the developing nervous system, located along the dorsal midline of the embryo. In embryology and neuroanatomy, it illustrates how the tube regionalizes to generate sensory interneurons and motor neurons, forming the brain and spinal cord of the central nervous system (CNS).
