19
Q

Ectoderm

A

outer layer of skin and teeth, nervous system

20
Q

mesoderm

A

21
Q

Endoderm-

A

epithelial lining of GI and respiratory tract

22
Q

Somite formation definition

A

formation of horizontal body segments from the mesoderm

23
Q

somite formation occurs from caudal/cranial to caudal/cranial

A

from cranial to caudal

24
Q

each somite divides forming….

A

dermatome –> skin dermis, myotome –> muscle and sclerotome –> bone

25
how many somites are there?
35-37
26
what four proccesses occur during the 3rd week?
1. gastrulation 2. somite formation 3. neurulation 4. trilaminar embryo
27
what is the main evemt occuring in week 4?
organogenesis, folding: longitudinal and transverse, germ layer differentiation, pharyngeal arches, heart, 4 limbs begin to develop
28
Caudal/cranial --\> Caudal/cranial distal/Proximal --\> distal/Proximal
cranial --\> caudal proximal --\> distal
29
fetus breaths amniotic fluid and excretes into the amniotic fluid but this dose not cause \_\_\_\_\_\_
defecation
30
there **is/is not** mixing of fetal blood in the womb
there is not
31
-Placenta is highly ______ and formed by the embryo exchanges 1. waste 2. gas 3. nutrition therefore acting as \_\_\_\_\_, \_\_\_\_, and \_\_\_\_\_\_
vascular; kidney, lungs, and GI tract
32
Malformation
abnormality that occurs 3-8 weeks
33
Deformation
abnormality secondary to extrinsic disruption after embryonic period
34
Sequence
multiple abnormalities developing in a sequence
35
Syndrome
multiple abnormalities not developing in a certain sequence
36
Mesenchyme
aggregates of undifferentiated cells mostly made of mesoderm
37
Longitudinal Folding
cranial and caudal ends fold ventrally, moves heart from cranial into new thorax and it begins to beat
38
Transverse Folding
lateral sides fold ventrally, creates the GI tract, creates body cavities called coelom, germ layers begin forming structures
39
Major congenital abnormalities are most likely to arise during developmental weeks ___________ to ___________ .
3;8

1.The inner cell mass gives rise to the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_, whereas the trophoblast gives rise to the _________________ .
fetus; placenta
