Q

Endoderm gives rise to

A

Epithelial lining, lines glands and organs dealing with GI, and glandular cells of liver and pancreas

26
Q

The caudal area develops what

A

Cloacal plate. which later forms the openings of the anus, urinary, and genital tracts

27
Q

What is the area for the future heart

A

Cardiogenic Area

28
Q

What can occur if remnants of the primitive streak remain

A

Give rise to a tumor

29
Q

What is the most common tumor in newborns

A

Sacroccygeal Teratoma

30
Q

What is the notochord

A

Mesoderm cells that migrate cranially to create a midline cord of cells

31
Q

What is neurulation

A

Begins with the folding called neurulation and it’s a Process of conversion of the neural plate from a neural tube happens in the beginning of the fourth week

32
Q

What is the function of neurophores

A

Allows for communication with the amniotic cavity through large openings

33
Q

What is Spina bifida and anencephaly

A

An interruption of the tube closure

34
Q

What are somites

A

Segmented mesodermal tissue along neural tube, which gives rise to vertebral column, voluntary m., connective tissue, and skin

35
Q

What is the primary chorioinic villi

A

Core of cytotrophoblast cells covered by syntrophoblasts

36
Q

What is the secondary chorionic villi

A

Mesodermal cells penetrate the core of the cytotrophoblast cells of the primary villi

37
Q

What is the tertiary chorionic villi

A

Mesodermal core differentiates into blood and blood vessels

38
Q

What is Perinatology

A

Study of fetus and newborn as patient

39
Q

What is Fetology

A

Studies concerned with the fetus

40
Q

Amniocentesis

A

After 14 weeks, sampling of amniotic fluid by inserting a hollow needle into mother’s abdominal and uterine wall

41
Q

Indicators for Amniocentesis

A

Later maternal age 38+, previous chrmosomal abnormalities, family hx, or carrier of inborn metabolic disorder

42
Q

Schedule of ultrasounds

A

7-8th week confirm and look for ectopic, 18th-20th malformations mult. pregnancy and postition of placenta, and 34th week fetal size growth and position

43
Q

What is a Fetoscopy

A

Fiber optics to scan entire fetus

44
Q

Fetoscopy risks

A

Higher risk factors, 5-6% of fetal death or spontaneous abortions can be up to 12%, and radiation exposure-thyroid abnormalities

45
Q

Chorionic Villus Sampling

A

Biopsy of the chorionic villi by inserting a needle into the abdominal and uterine wall. 8th week. 2-3% fetal death

46
Q

Alpha fetoprotein

A

Glycoprotein synthesized in fetal liver, yolk sack and gut

47
Q

What is the Decidua Basalis

A

Where the placenta is attached

48
Q

What is the Decidua Capsularis

A

At the aembryonic (opposite the embryo) end

49
Q

What is the Decidua Parietalis

A

Opposite to the sides of implantation

50
Q

The Amniochorionic Membrane is aka

A

The Amniotic Sac

51
Q

Weight of the placenta

A

1/7 of the maternal weight

52
Q

Fetal circulation Deoxy blood

A

Deoxy blood goes through arteries. The lungs are bypassed and do not receive oxygen

53
Q

Umbilical Vein

A

Fetal blood is oxygenated through the placenta and passes into the umbilical vein

54
Q

Rate of blood flow and fetal hypoxia

A

Rate is pretty high, but fetal hypoxia can occur due to acute reduction in maternal blood flow

55
Q

4 layers of Placenta Membrane

A

Syntrophoblasts, Cytotrophoblasts, Connective tissue layer, Endothelium of fetal capillaries

56
Q

How are materials transported across the placental membrane

A

Simple, facillitated, Active xport, or pinocytosis

57
Q

Functions of Amniotic Fluid

A

Movement, Growth, prevents adherence, protections, nutrition, maintain temp, and lubricate cervix during birth

58
Q

Oligohydramnios

A

400mL or less of amniotic fluid

59
Q

Polyhydramnios

A

2000mL or more of amniotic fluid

60
Q

Characteristics of the Umbilical cord

A

1-2 cm diameter, 50-60 cm length, Contains 1 vein and 2 arteries

61
Q

When the yolk sac/secondary umbilical vesicle starts to degenerate, it retains a portion to become…

A

Vitelline vessels

62
Q

What is Allantois

A

These vessels become urachus in the fetus, or the median umbilical ligament in adults
