embryo Flashcards
5 ____ develop as bulging prominences around the ____ during week 4
facial primordia; stomodeum
5 different primordia include:
frontonasal prominence (rostral to stomodeum) maxillary prominences (lateral to stomodeum) mandibular prominences (caudal to stomodeum)
____ separates the primitive oral cavity from the developing GI tract and disintegrates during the early 5th week
buccopharyngeal membrane
most facial structures develop during weeks ____ which is during the _____
4-8 (2nd month); embryonic period
during fetal period, ___ expands to accompany the growing brain, which causes the eyes to shift ____
cranium; anteriorly and medially
during the fetal period, the ____ move superiorly and the ___ becomes more prominent
ears; nose
proportions of the facial skeleton become more normal once the _____ grow and once fetus acquires ____
maxilla and mandible grow (to allow space for teeth)
paranasal sinuses
at the end of the 4th week, 2 ____ thickenings develop within the frontonasal prominence, called the _____
ectodermal; nasal placodes
____ surrounding the placodes proliferates, forming elevations called:
mesenchyme
medial and lateral nasal prominences (2 of each)
during the 5th week, epithelium of nasal placodes sinks down into underlying mesenchyme to form depressions called ____, which will become the future ____
nasal pits; nostrils (nares)
the nasal pits will deepen and expand dorsally to form ____, which will form the ____
nasal sacs; right and left nasal cavities
____ separates nasal cavities from oral cavity; ruptures at the end of week 6
oronasal membrane
after rupture of oronasal membrane, nasal and oral cavities are now in communication through ____
primordial choanae
development of the ____ establishes the definitive choanae, separating the ____
secondary palate ; nasal cavity from nasopharynx
____ gives rise to olfactory epithelium
neuroectoderm
____ develop from lateral walls of the nasal cavity
nasal conchae
____ prominences fuse at the midline first to create a smooth jawline
mandibular
maxillary prominences grow in size and move medially, compressing the ____ in the midline, causing them to fuse
medial nasal prominences
cleft between lateral nasal prominences and maxillary prominences is the _____; it is lost once the prominences fuse
nasolacrimal groove
____ proliferates into underlying ____ and forms a solid rod that separates from the surface and canalizes to become the ____
ectoderm; mesenchyme; nasolacrimal duct
superior end of nasolacrimal duct dilates to form ____ and inferior end opens up into _____
nasolacrimal sac; inferior meatus of the nasal cavity
medial nasal prominences fuse to form the ____
intermaxillary segment
intermaxillary segment consists of:
- philtrum of upper lip (labial component)
- premaxillary part of maxilla (upper jaw comp); 4 incisors and assoc gingiva
- primary palate (palatal comp; the primary hard palate is only the most anterior portion of the hard palate)
