During week five of development, the nasal pits form and divide the frontonasal process into four processes. The nasal placode proliferates surrounding mesoderm to push the ectoderm outward and transform the placode into the nasal pit. Between the medial nasal processes is the medial-labial groove, and between the medial and maxillary processes is the lateral-labial groove. The lens placodes also appear at this time between the maxillary and frontonasal processes, leading to eye development lateral to the face.

• The nasal pits is formed & divide the frontonasal process into 4 processes, 2MNP (medial nasal process) & 2 LNP (lateral nasal process) • Nasal Placode to Nasal Pit : By proliferation of the mesoderm around the nasal placode. • So, push the ectoderm outside transforming the nasal placode into the nasal pit . • Important events • Between the 2 MNP (medial nasal process), there is a wide groove called medial-labial groove or depression • Between the MNP (medial nasal process) & the MaxP (maxillary process), there is a groove called lateral-labial groove. • Eye Development • At the 5th WIUL the eye developed by the appearance of the lens placodes between the maxillary and the frontonasal processes at the lateral sides of the face. • So, that’s why the eye can’t be seen in the 2d model .
