40
Q

when do limbs grow? what layer initates them?

A

end of 4 week

initiated by mesoderm

41
Q

limb field is what?

A

patch of mesoderm to make a free limb

42
Q

if remove whole patch vs. part of it?

A

whole=no limb

part of patch = compensation

43
Q

transplant free limb patch?

A

ectopic limb

44
Q

How thick is the ectoderm overlying limb bud? why is it significant?

A

one cell thick

easy to damage or split resulting in diplopodia or other defects

45
Q

how are digits developed?

A

hands and feet start as discs, sculpted by apoptosis

46
Q

what is syndactyly?

A

fused fingers

47

what is the most common congenital limb abnormality? frequency?

A

congenital hip dislocation due to malformed acetabulum

1:500

48
Q

What is amelia? meromelia? caused by?

A

absent or reduced limbs. Thalidomide

49
Q

what forms the epithelial lining of liver, pancreas?

A

ENDODERM!

50
Q

What is the Coelom?

A

holds the viscera

51
Q

Where does coelom come from?

A

split in lateral mesoderm

52
Q

what does the lateral mesoderm divide into? what do the two become?

A

splanchnic mesoderm: viscera

somatic mesoderm: muscle

53
Q

describe the folding formation of the coelom?

A

pulls toether like a bag pull string in 3D

54
Q

Where does the lumen of gut come from?

A

pinched off from the yolk sac during the coelom folding (tube within a tube)

55
Q

what is the stomodeum?

proctodeum?

A

membrane covering future mouth and anus

56
Q

ectoderm meets endoderm when what happens to the oral plate?

A

when it breaks = oral cavity

57
Q

what is the cloacal membrane?

A

anus seal where ectoderm and endoderm meet

58
Q

What is the allantois?

A

in body stalk, used to be nitrogenous waste storage in animals

59
Q

what is between allantois and hind gut? what does it do?

A

urorectal septum that divides rectum from urogenital tract

60
Q

what gives rise to bladder and urogenital tract?

A

allantois

61
Q

how many pharyngeal pouches form?

A

4

62
Q

where does most of the heart come from?

A

lateral splanchnic mesoderm

63
Q

how is the heart developed?

A

from two endocardial tubes fused together

64
Q

how do you get 4 chambers of heart in embryo?

A

folding of two fused tube

65
Q

where does heart muscle comes from? germ layer.
