Body Cavities And body Folding Flashcards
What defines Growth as a phase of embryonic development?
Cell division and elaboration of cell products
What defines Morphogenesis as a phase of embryonic development ?
Development of f shape, size and other features of a particular organ or part of whole body
How is Morphogenesis controlled?
What changes will this lead to?
Controlled by gene expression and regulation in an orderly sequence
Changes in
- cell fate
- cell shape
- cell movement
What does Morphogenesis allow fo?
Allows cells to interact w/ each other during the formation of tissues and organs
What defines Differentiation as a phase of embryonic development?
Organization of cells into a precise pattern of tissues and organs capable of performing specialized functions
What will form the primordium of the intraembryonic coelom?
Isolated coelomic spaces int he lateral plate and cardiogenic mesoderm
What is a coelom?
Embryonic body cavity
How is the intraembryonic coelom formed?
What shape does this take on?
Thru the coalescing of isolating coelomic spaces
Horseshoe shaped
What will the formation of the Itnraembyronic coelom do tot he Lateral mesoderm?
Divides lateral mesoderm into
- Somatic/parietal layer of lateral mesoderm
- Splanchnic/visceral layer of lateral mesoderm
What is the somatic layer of lateral mesoderm continuous w/ ?
Continuous w/ extra-embryonic mesoderm covering the amnion
What is the splanchnic layer of the lateral mesoderm continuous w/?
W/ extra-embryonic mesoderm covering the umbilical vesicle
What is somatopleure?
What doe this form?
Somatic mesoderm and overlying embryonic ectoderm
forms the body wall
What is splanchopleure?
What will it form?
Splanchnic mesoderm and underlying embryonic endoderm
forms embryonic gut
How does folding in the embryonic planes occur?
Folding in cranial and caudal and sides simultaneously
What does the body folding of the embryonic in the median and horizontal planes do?
Takes flat,trilaminar embryonic disc
—>
Cylindrical embryo
Does folding occur faster laterally or in the median plane?
Lateral edges do not keep pace w/ the increase in embryo length
What day does the head fold begin?
Day 22/week 4
How does Head Folding occur?
- Embryo elongates in length
- Neural folds grow over the oropharyngeal membrane
- This moves the septum transversum, primordial heart, pericardial coelom and oropharyngeal membrane to ventral (front) surface
- Part of endoderm of umbilical vesicle is incorporated as foregut
What comprises the foregut?
Primordium of pharynx, esophagus, and lower respiratory system
After head folding, how is the intra-embryonic coelom?
Pericardial cavity is at front
Pericardioperitoneal canal run dorsally on each side of foregut
Intraembryonic and extraembryonic coelom are in communication
What is the process of tail folding?
- Caudal (back) end of embryonic folds in due to growth of distal neural tube
Forms the spinal cord primordium - Caudal eminence projects over the cloacal membrane
- Part of endoderm from Allantois will form hindgut
- Terminal hindgut dilates to form the cloaca
What is the future of the cloacal membrane?
To form the anus
What comprises the hindgut?
Descending colon/rectum
What is the cloaca?
Rudiment of urinary bladder/rectum
Before tail folding where did the primitive streak lie?
After folding?
Before: primitive streak lies cranial to cloacal membrane
After: lies caudal to cloacal membrane
