Q

pre-embryonic develoment

A
  • first 2 weeks after fertilization
  • zygote > embryo

cleavage division: dividing cell > morula (solid ball of cells)

21
Q

gestation

A

morula divides > blastocyst

- 5 days after fertilization

22
Q

blastocyst

A
  • fluid filled cavity
  • composed of:
    trophoblast cell: surround blastocyst + provide nourishment (becomes chorion)
    embryoblast: becomes embryo
23
Q

implantation

A
  • attachment of blastocyst to endometrium
  • 5-7 days post
  • embryoblast > embryonic disk

disk consists of…

epiblast: rise to fetus
hypoblast: rise to yolk sac

24
Q

embryonic development

A
  • 3rd-8th week post

- endoblast layer has ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm

25
Q

what happens at the 4th-8th week post??

A
  • major organs develop
  • heart beats
  • brains begins too develop
  • limb buds differenciate
26
Q

ectoderm

A

form nervous system + epidermal layer

27
Q

mesoderm

A

form muscle, bone, blood vessels, dermis

28
Q

endoderm

A

form epithelial layer of digestive, respiratory, urinary, reproductive tract & associated glands

29
Q

embryonic membranes consist of…

A

1) amnion
2) yolk sac
3) chorion
4) allantois

30
Q

amnion

A
  • from epiblast

- filled cavity surrounding embryo (reduce disturbances)

31
Q

yolk sac

A
  • from hypoblast

- produce early blood & germ cells

32
Q

chorion

A
  • from trophoblast cells
  • fetal portion of placenta
  • surrounds embryonic membranes
33
Q

allantois

A
  • pocketing of yolk sac

- umbilical cord & urinary bladder

34
Q

fetal development

A
  • 9th-40th week
35
Q

inheritance

A
  • transfer of genetically determined characteristics
36
Q

genetics

A

study of inheritance

37
Q

genes

A

segment of DNA on chromosome to direct protein synthesis

38
Q

chromosomes

A

DNA + histone proteins

39
Q

alleles

A

same locus on chromosome

40
Q

homozgous alleles

A

both gene copies encode same version of gene

41
Q

heterozygous alleles

A

both gene copies encode diff. version of gene

42
Q

dominant allele

A

fully exposed trait

43
Q

recessive allele

A

can be hidden by dominant

44
Q

genotype

A

genetic makeup of person

45
Q

phenotype

A

how genotype is expressed

46
Q

sex chromosomes: male & female

A

male: never homozygous (genotype depends on X carriers)
female: can be homo/hetero (X chromosomes carry same gene at same loci)

47
Q

what is a punnett square?

A

predicts characteristic of offspring + probability of inheritance

48
Q

what is autosomal inheritance?

A

genes located on chromosomes 1-22
