You have stumbled upon the question that has stymied developmental biologists forever. How does an organism know how to arrange its cells and what factors are in play that predispose one to chaotic misplacement of tissue types/cell types..?

Can anyone link me to any research that explains how multicellular life coordinate to express phenotypes?--I'm having difficulty understanding how cells know their position in relation to other cells in order to move into any discernible shape, and how that is encoded in dna?Something like a Tardigrade, at least wikipedia says it has 40k cells and is eutelic, sounds manageable... but HOW?!How do those cells know they are all accounted for and in the right places? I feel like it's going to be an answer of some kind of bonds at certain places on each cell membrane but no idea what to even search for to learn more.
