Embryology Flashcards
produces blastomeres
Mitotic divisions
Week 1
16 cell structure at 3 days post fertilization
Morula
Cells that implant into uterine wall at day 6
Trophoblast
Form embryo of fetus and embryo blast
Inner mast cells
Trophoblast into 2 layers
Cytotrophoblasts
Synctiotrophoblasts
Produces hcg
In contact with maternal blood supply via trophoblastic lacunae
Synctiotrophoblast
Inner cell layer form new trophoblastic cells
Lines primitive yolk sac
Cytotrophoblast
Embryoblast (inner cell mast) forms 2 layers that form flat disc
Epiblast
Hypoblast
Source of all germ layers
Embryonic ectodermal tissue
Small cavity = amniotic cavity
Epiblastic cells = amino lasts
Epiblast layer
Cuboidal epithelium
Forms primitive yolk sac
Becomes endodermis tissue of yolk sac
Hypoblast
Extraembryonic mesoderm divides into
Somatic
Splanchinic
Connecting stalk is future
Umbilical cord
Cytotrophoblast cells penetrate synctiotrophoblast forms
Primary villi
Extraembryonic splanchnic mesoderm covers
Yolk sac
Secondary and tertiary villi form barrier between
Maternal and fetal blood by the two layers of trophoblasts
Week 3 beginning of
Morphogenesis
Notochord formed
3 layer disc from bilaminar disc composed of ecto- endo- meso-derm
Formation of primitive streak
Week 3 Gastrulation
Epiblast cells through primitive pit form
Notochordal process
Epiblast cells lateral primitive streak form
Mesoderm
Epiblast cells staying form
Ectoderm
Epiblast cells on primitive streak
Endoderm
Germ layers derived from
Eps lasting cell layer of bilaminar disc
Epithelial lining of respiratory system and gi tract
Endoderm
Smooth and striated m Skeleton Reproductive Vessels ❤️
Mesoderm
Epidermis
Surface ectoderm
Nervous system
Neural crest
Neuroectoderm
Notochord process forms
Notochordal plate
Structure around which vertebral column forms
Inducer of neural plate formation
Notochord
