Relating to animals whose digestive tract develops from the embryonic layer called the entoderm.
From 'entero-' (intestine) and '-delous' (from Greek 'delos' meaning evident or belonging to). This rare term appears in embryology and comparative anatomy texts to describe fundamental developmental patterns.
All animals with backbones, including you, are enterodelous—your entire digestive system grew from a single layer of cells in your embryo, which then folded and specialized!
