Embryology Flashcards
where does the release oocyte go? where does the corpus luetum go?
fallopian tube; stays in uterus
what forms appendicular skeleton
somatic lateral plate mesoderm
Acipal Ectoderm Ridge
thickening of ectoderm on distal end of limb bud that induces proliferation and growth of limb
what forms intervertebral discs
mesenchymal cells dervied from notocord between cephalic and caudal
Phase 1 of fertilization
300-500 sperm pentrate corona radiata 1 sperm pentrates egg after coat on head degrades corona radiata.
Amniotic cavity
formed by epiblasts in week 2 (day 8). a cavity formed by epiblast and cytotrophoblasts.
what happens as corpus leutrum degenerates?
tapers off the release of estrogen and progesterone and endometrium lining soughs off (menstruation)
morula
16-32 cell stage at day 4
ectopic pregnancy
blastocyst impacts in peritoneal cavity, mesentery, surface of ovary instead of uterine wall
myotome
derivative of somite gives rise to skeletal muscle
oropharyngeal membrane
tightly adhered region where mesoderm cannot intrude. Future mouth
proneucleus
nucleus in the oocyte that are haploids; one is from sperom and one is from oocyte. They fuse to form a diploid zyogte
dorsal neural crest cells
melanocytes - skin and hair follicles
sperm-oocyte membrane fusion
when cell membranes fuse and nucleus of sperm is injected into oocyte and triggers meiosis II
sclerotome
deriviative of somite. gives rise to vertebrate surround neural tube and noto cord
caudal neuropore
is caudal edge of neural tube folding. gives rise to spinal cord
what forms axons from spinal ganglion
ventral neural crest cells
what becomes mid-gut
sphlonachonpluere folding
what do cranial somites form
neurcranium or skull bone
primitive groove function
epiblast cells invaginate through primitive groove to form mesoderm and endoderm. Epiblast cells on top differentiate into ectoderm.
primitive pit purpose
epiblast cells invaginate to from notocord, which grows to oropharyngal membrane.
what trigger the LH release?
increase leveled of estrogen.
formation of three germ layers
formed by migration of epiblast cells through primitive streak
what do the rest of the somites form?
mytome or sclerotome, dermatome
what happens day 5?
morula enters uterine cavity and fluids penetrate zona pllucida into innercell space to form a single cavity called a blastocele
cranial nueropore
leading edge of cranial folding. gives rise to brain.
neural groove formation
rising of nueral plate (ectoderm) and inside sinks to from the neural groove
hind gut
formation from caudal folding
primitive streak formation
formed by thickening of epiblast layer due to epiblast proliferation from cranial to caudal
what happens when primitive streak degenerates too soon?
sirenomella, or mermaid like. undifferentiated lower limbs and other organs
week 2 goals
implantation of blastocyst, establish uteroplacental circulation
spermatogonia
stem cells for sperom developed in testes, activated at puberty
Gametogeneis
formation of gametes primordial germ cells in yolk sac (3 weeks) of embryo to give rise to spermatogonia and ovaries
epiblast cells
formed from inner cell mass or embryoblast. gives rise to three germ layers and entire embryo.
embryoblast
inner cell mass, give rise to embryo
Foregut formation
from cranial folding
how many chromosomes are there?
46 (23 pairs each)
extraembryonic reticulum
cavity surrounding yolk sac and amniotic cavity.
Limb growth stages
1) limb bud (week 5) 2) paddle (week 5) can begin to see some shape 3) ray (week 6) webbed fingers 4) segmental apoptosis, formation of figers
hypoblast cells
formed from inner cell mass or embryoblase not embryo forming, give rise to lining of yolk sac.
end result of embryo folding
1) embryo covered with ectoderm 2) amniotic cavity surround embryo 3) endoderm lined gut tube inside body suspended by dorsal mesentery 4) yolk sac outside body 5) connecting stalk ventrally becomes umbilicus
trophoblast
outer cell mass, give rise to placenta
Chorionic cavity
fluid filled spaces in extra-embryonic mesoderm
when does 1st division occur?
30 hours after fertilization
cleavage
mitosis of zygote; increases # but volume remains the same
uteroplacental circulation
when englulfed in the membrane, hypoblasts and abembryonic pole start forming yolk sac maternal blood cells fills lacunae in extraembryonic space.
Embryo head folding
folds ventrally and caudally to shift everything into the opposite place. ie. spetum transversum was most cranial, now it’s most caudal. forms the endoderm lined foregut
somite develpment
somites develop in the paraxial mesoderm around day 20. and form every 8 hours or so. there are around 42 form
neural tube
formed by thickened ectoderm and cranial gives rise to brain, caudal gives rise to spinal cord, underneath ectoderm and on top of notocord
notocord function
cells migrating along notocord have different fates and differentiate into different layers: 1) parasial mesoderm 2) intermediate mesoderm 3) lateral mesoderm this is called the fate map
steps after implantation:
1) epiblasts cells grow deeper into the walls of the uterus 2)amniotic cavity begins to form in epiblast layer 3)hypoblasts differentiate into yolk sac trophoblastic lacunae are openings in the syncytiotrophoblast layer 4) maternal blood enters lacunae 5)extraembryonic reticulum forms
