Embryology Flashcards
Cleavage
Rapid mitotic cell division without changing total size.
Gastrulation
Generation of three distinct cell layers: Ecto, Endo, Meso.
Integumentary System is derived from —-derm
Ectoderm
Lens of the eye is derived from —-derm
Ectoderm
Nervous System is derived from —-derm
Ectoderm
Musculoskeletal System is derived from —derm
Mesoderm
Circulatory System is derived from —derm
Mesoderm
Excretory System is derived from –derm
Mesoderm
Gonads are derived from —-derm
Mesoderm
Muscular and connective tissue coats of the digestive and respiratory systems are derived from —-derm
Mesoderm
Epithelial linings of digestive and respiratory tracts are derived from —-derm
Endoderm
Lungs are derived from —-derm
Endoderm
Parts of the Liver, Pacreas, Thyroid are derived from —-derm
Endoderm
Bladder, distal urinary and reproductive tracts are derived from —-derm
Endoderm
Indeterminate cleavage results in cells that can
can still develop into complete organisms
First, Second, Third cleavage occurs at X,Y,Z hours postfertilization
32,60,72 hours postfertilization
Notochord
Rod of mesodermal cells
Gestation
Period of development until birth = pregnancy
First Trimester results in…
Major organs develop.
Second Trimester results in…
fetus begins to resemble human, moves.
Third Trimester results in…
Antibodies transported by highly selective active transport from mother to fetus. Growth rate slows.
