Understand the context: The central nervous system (CNS) begins its development from the neural tube during embryogenesis.
Identify the timeline of embryonic development: The neural tube formation is a critical event that occurs early in the embryonic stage.
Recall the sequence of events: The neural tube forms during the third week of embryonic development.
Differentiate the stages: After the formation of the neural tube, differentiation into the CNS begins in the fourth week.
Conclude the timeline: The CNS starts differentiating from the neural tube in the developing embryo after week four.
