Body Folding & Body Cavities Flashcards
Define embryonic growth ?
cell division and elaboration fo cell products
Define embryonic morphogenesis?
How is it controlled?
-devp. of size, shape, etc of a particular organ or part of whole body
–> controlled by gene expression and regulation ; changes in cell fate, shape, and movement allow interaction b/w cells during formation
Define embryonic differentiation?
cells organized in precise pattern of tissue & organs that are capable of performing specialized functions
What is a coelom?
body cavity lined by epithelium derived from mesoderm
What is the first step in embryonic folding and when does it occur?
-primordium of intraembryonic coelom appear ; they coal’s two make intra embryonic coelom
Week 4 (during same time as neurulation
What does the intraembryonic coelom split the lateral plate mesoderm into?
- somatic (parietal) layer
- splanchnic (visceral layer)
what two layers of embryo for the body wall?
what is it called?
- somatic layer and ectoderm
- somatopleure
What two layers of embryo for the embryonic gut?
what is it called?
- splanchnic layer and endoderm
- splanchnopleure
What 3 planes does the embryo fold in simultaneously to get shape?
horizontal (cranial and caudal) and coronal (lateral) planes
When does the embryo begin to fold cranially?
Day 22 (4th wk)
Describe what happens during cranial folding
- the primitive brain will overgrow the oropharyngeal membrane
- this will push the septum transversum, IEC, and primordial heart ventrally
- it will also pull the forget ( endoderm of umbilical vesicle) with it
What is the result of cranial folding?
- pericardial cavity, primordial heart, and septum transverse are ventral
- oropharyngeal membrane is now cranial to those structures
- foregut is dorsal to all of those structures
-pericardioperitoneal canals are dorsal to pericardial cavity and heart, lateral to foregut
what primordial features does the foregut turn into?
-future pharynx, esophagus, lower respiratory system
Are the intraembryonic and extra embryonic coeloms in communication after cranial folding?
YES
Describe what happens during tail folding?
- -caudal eminence overgrows the cloacal membrane
- this causes the push of endoderm up and in = hindgut
- pushes primitive streak caudal to cloacal membrane
- allantois is partially incorporated
- connecting stalk is moved ventrally
What promotes tail folding?
growth of distal neural tube (SC primordium)
What is the hindgut give rise to?
-descending colon, rectum
What does the terminal hind gut give rise to?
forms cloaca = rudiment of bladder and rectum
