Movie 22.
First example of anterior/ventral SE cell behaviour during the second phase of neural tube closure. When neural plate apical constriction occurs, anterior/ventral SE cells are stretched towards the dorsal side of the embryo, following the movement of anterior neural plate cells. Time interval = 20 sec.
