The Vitelline Artery and Vein? Becomes vasculature of abdomen
42
What are the two shunts of the fetal heart?
the ductus arteriosus and formen ovale
43
An adult has a condition where the foramen secundum is formed but there is excess resorption of the septum primum. This would cause what defect in blood flow? What is this condition called?
blood flow from the left atrium to the right atrium because there is higher pressure in the left atrium in an adult. this is an Atrial Septal Defect (ASD)
44
what two structures surround the interventricular foramen? How does the IV foramen start to disappear?
the endocardial cushion and the muscular interventricular septum the endocardial cushion and muscular IV septum fuse
45
if the membranous part of the IV septum does not form, a newborn will have blood flowing in what way?
from the left ventricle to the right ventricle because the pressure in the left ventricle is higher.
46
what type of cells form the truncus arteriosus?
neural crest cells
47
what is on top: the pulmonary trunk or the aorta?
The pulmonary trunk
48
what portion of the interventricular septum closes the IV foramen?
the membranous portion
49
what do the cardinal veins form?
the major veins of the body
50
What nerves supply the larynx? What do they wrap around?
the recurrent laryngeal nerves on the right: the nerve wraps under the right subclavian artery. onthe left: the nerve wraps under the ductus arteriosus (ligamentum arteriosus in adults)

The respiratory diverticulum
68
what does the respiratory diverticulum become?
the trachea and lung buds
69
if you were to choke on a peanut, which lung would it be in?
The right side. This side of the lung grows larger and straighter than the left.

life outside of the womb is rare but possible
78
what is significant about the sacular period (4)?
1. surfactant production 2. lungs begin to mature 3. type 1 pneumocytes dominate 4. life is possible outside of the womb
79
what is significant about the alveolar period (3)?
alveoli increase in number respiratory system continues to divide continues until 8 yo
80
a full complement of mature alveoli are present by how many weeks?
37
81
if a baby is born prematurely before type 2 cells make enough pulmonary surfactant, what would you expect?
difficulty inflating the lungs
82
when do fetal breathing movements begin?
around 20 weeks

it is absorbed
84
* At what week does the fetus have enough mature structure to breath on its own if born prematurely? * What other structures develop during this phase (3)?
late canalicular period: week 28 strucutre: pulmonary capillaries (expand to create large surface area for gas exchange), alveolar ducts and alveolar precursors
85
the **lung alveoli** are derived from (splanchnic Mesoderm/ectoderm/endoderm/somatic mesoderm/coelem)?
