| a group of hypodermal cells that lie along the apical midline of the hypodermis, at the extreme left and right sides between nose and tail | seam cell | lateral hypodermis | WBbt:0005753 |
| primary cell type that forms the hypodermis. | hypodermal cell | WBbt:0007846 | |
| Blast cell lying ventrolaterally in the late embryo and L1 larval stage which divides during the late L1 larva in stereotypical reiterated fashion to give rise to many motor neurons which begin function in the ventral cord and preanal ganglion of the early L2 larva, as well as hypodermal cells (which fuse into hyp7) and a series of programmed cell deaths. In addition, the Pn.p daughters of P3 through P8 lineages persist without fusing into the hyp7 syncytium until mid L3 stage when they can be induced to divide further to produce vulval epithelial cells (vulA - vulF) or more hyp7 cells. P0 is also known as W. | ventral cord blast cell | P cell | WBbt:0008115 |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| The C. elegans life stage spanning 520-620min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The shape of embryo is elongated and tripple fold. A stage between 2-fold embryo and fully-elongated embryo. Also called pretzel embryo or pretzel stage. | 3-fold embryo Ce | WBls:0000020 |
