In what week does heart development begin?
Week 3. Solid, then canalizes at Week 4.
Tissue responsible when heart begins to form?
Cardiogenic mesoderm form solid, horseshoe-shaped endothelial cord.
What creates primitive heart tube?
Lateral body folding (ventrally and medially, to approach midline).
How does head folding reposition heart and pericardial cavity? Before head fold
Rostral to oropharyngeal membrane Ventral to pericardial cavity
How does head folding reposition heart and pericardial cavity? After head fold
Caudal to oropharyngeal membrane Dorsal to pericardial cavity Ventral to the foregut Rostral to the septum transversum/diaphragm
