Q

Fertilisation process

A

Occurs in fallopian tube - Sperm travels through corona radiata -> zona pellicuda
-> Sperm fuses with oocyte

Q

Zygote cleavage

A

Day 1. Two cell stage
Day 2. Cleavage of zygote results in four cells
Day 4. Loosley packed cells - Morula formed
Day 5. Cells tightly packed - Blastocyst

Q

Embryonic folding

A

Embryonic disc folds inward to form gut - Ectodermal layer folds inward of mesoderm pinching of yolk to form the gut where endoderm is the hollow tube of the gut

17
Q

Stem Cells

A

Replace, regenerate daughter cells for growth, renewal and repair

18
Q

Totipotent stem cell

A

Give rise to embryonic tissues and body cells

19
Q

Pluripotent stem cell

A

Give rise to all body cells that become committed to pathways

20
Q

Multipotent stem cell

A

Give rise to all cells within particular organ

21
Q

Nullipotent stem cell

A

Give rise to only once cell type

22
Q

Unipotent

A

Renew skin cells

23
Q

Decreasing development potential

A

Cells become fixed on a pathway and fixed/limited to a certain fate
