what are conjoined twins?

A

monozygotic twins that are joined physically

33
Q

what causes conjoined twins?

A

abnormal cleavage

34
Q

When does the blastocyst enter the uterus?

A

5 days after fertilization

35
Q

what happens 6-7 days after fertilization?

blastocyst attaches to endometrium

36
Q

what is the germinal period

A

first two weeks when the germ layers will form

37
Q

what is the embryonic period?

A

3-8 weeks of development

38

endoderm

40
Q

what is the ectoderm?

A

outside layer. skin and nervous system

41
Q

what is the mesoderm?

A

middle layer. muscle, bone and connective tissue

42
Q

what is the endoderm?

middle layer. most viscera

43
Q

what are the four membranes that develop

A

yolk sac
amnion
chorion
allantois

44
Q

what is the yolk sac?
