(A) AP-axis division leads cells to elongate in PD-axis (upper), and PD-axis division leads cells to elongate in AP-axis (lower). (B) Isotropic cell growth makes cells grow and move in all directions, and reduced cell size constraint cells to move in the direction of tissue elongation. (C) Oriented mechanical forces lead the shape of cells to change in oriented directions.
