Development 1 Flashcards
refer to the development of specialized cell types
differentiation
cells that can self renew as well as differentiate into different cell types
stem cells
refers to the possible cell types that a specific cell can generate during normal development
potency
give rise to any cell type
totipotent
give rise to numerous cell types
pluripotent
transport of zygote and implantations
gastrulation begins
pre-embryonic - 1st 2 weeks after fertilization
gastrulation complete
neurulation + organ formation starts
umbilical cord and extra embryonic membranes
embryonic development - weeks 3-9
growth and further organ specialization
fetal period - 9 weeks to birth
aminion, yolk sac, placenta
extraembryonic membranes
becomes extra-embryonic tissues
hypoblast
gives rise to embryo
epiblast
scyncytiotrophoblast proliferate/invades the endometrium
amniotic cavity forms as a space within the epiblast
Day 8
implantation complete
epiblast forms 2 layers around growing amnionic cavity
Heuser’s membrane forms
Day 9
erosion of maternal capillaries
yolk sac forms
extra embryonic mesoderm forms
Day 10-11
extra embryonic mesoderm lines Heuser’s membrane
chorionic mesoderm forms
ee memsoderm separates cytotrophoblast from amnioblasts
Day 12
