Q

Axial mesoderm has what three early developmental structures?

A
  1. prechordal plate (i think it eventually forms the vertebra)
  2. notochord, just helps folding and morphogeneisis
  3. caudal eminence, thing that sticks out of caudal region of early embryo (i think once the caudal neuropore closes)
20
Q

______ fodling happens in the axial mesoderm

A

cephalocaudal folding

21
Q

in cephalocaudal folding, the primitive streak and notochord establish what?

A
  1. cephalocaudal side
  2. R/L side
  3. dorsal and ventral surface
22
Q

in cephalocaudal folding, rapid head and tail growth cause the embryo to move in what direction?

A

curl toward ventral surface

23
Q

Paraxial mesoderm has two sets of somitomeres. where are they located?

A

somitomeres in the head

AND in the body

24
Q

How many somitomeres do we have in the head? what do we call them?

A

we got 1-7 + neural plate.
they’re called neuromeres
they do wonderful things

25
Q

What are body somitomeres called?

how do they move?

A

somites.

occipitally to caudally

26
Q

How can you approximate embryo age?

A

with the position of the somites

27
Q

What forms the sclerotome?

and what does the sclerotome make

A

somites form sclerotome.

it makes vertabrae, ribs, and some of the base of skull

28
Q

What forms the dermatomyolome? and what are the two dermatomyolome parts and what do these two parts make?

A

somites form the dermatomyolome.
dermatome —-> makes dermis of skin
myolome —> makes skeletal muscles of body and limbs

29
Q

Why are dermatomyolomes still clincally relevant in adulthood?

A

each one of them RETAINS own segmental innvervation from origin

30
Q

Intermediate mesoderm forms most organs in _______ systems

A

genitoruinal

31
Q

Intermediate mesoderm forms what three organ cell layers in genitourinal systems?

A
  1. connective tissue
  2. smooth muscle
  3. epithelial linings
32
Q

In the UG organs, what provides the remaining epithelial lining that the intermediate mesoderm can’t provide?

A

The ENDODERM

33
Q

The lateral plate mesoderm helps form the ______ cavity

A

interaembryonic

34
Q

Does the lateral plate mesoderm split in the head?

A

Nope

35
Q

What two arms splits up into what two segments (arms in his PPT)?

A
  1. somatic

2. splanchnic

36
Q

The somatic arm of the lateral plate mesoderm makes up the connective tissue and smooth muscle of what three structures?

A
  1. body wall
  2. bones.
  3. cartilage of limbs and limb girdle
37
Q

The splanchnic arm of the lateral plate mesoderm makes up the connective tissue and smooth muscle of what two regions?

A

ALL of the ENDOderm line organs

and ALL of the tissues of cardiovascular system

38
Q

Regarding the mesodermal contribution to the chorion:

DURING THE FOLDING PROCESS, ENDOderm is formed into _______?

A

epithelial tube– which runs along body length!

39
Q

Regarding the mesodermal contribution to the chorion:

the ENDOderm tube forms_______?

A

the epithelial lining of the GI tract

40
Q

Regarding the mesodermal contribution to the chorion:

the mesoderm and ENDOderm collaborate to form ________?

A

SPECIFIC GI organs

41
Q

mesodermal contribution to the chorion forms epithelial components of what organs?

A

pharyngeal buds, lung buds, liver, pancrease, and gall bladder

42
Q

so we talked about cephalocaudal folding previously, what is the other kind of embryonic folding?

A

lateral folding!!!

43
Q

How does lateral folding occur?

and what structure does it make?

A

ENDOderm folds in embryo.

forms a NARROW TUBE structure

44
Q

in lateral folding, the mesoderm continues to separate out what two things?

A

ectoderm from endoderm

45
Q

at this point, what encircles embryo completely?

A

the ectoderm forms outer covering of embryo

and then the amniotic cavity is around that
