| 1. | An amnion, chorion, and allantois are present during embryonic life.
 
  |

  | 
 | 3. | Germ cells migrate from near the allantois and colonize the primordial gonads.

 | 4. | A very small allantois is found in modern amphibians.
 
  | 
 | 5. | Also, it is a common misconception that the allantois gives rise to the umbilical cord.
 
  | 
 | 6. | Tbx4 has been shown to be expressed in the allantois, hindlimb, lung and proctodeum.
 
  | 
 | 7. | Haeckel speculates that the allantois is formed in a similar way in both humans and other mammals.
 
  | 
 | 8. | The allantois ( 8 ) is a sac that collects the metabolic waste produced by the embryo.
 
  | 
 | 9. | The allantois regresses into the embryo to give rise to the urinary bladder and median umbilical ligament.
