embryology Flashcards
what are the four cellular processes in embryological development
proliferation differentiation reorganisation apoptosis
what is the progression of development in the first 2 months of development
conceptus, morula (inner and outer cells), blastocyst (outer trophectoderm, inner cell mass, fluid filled cavity) at 6 days this emerges from zona pelucida and implants by 10 days bilayer disk forms (hypoblast and epiblasts cells) gastrulination occurs trilaminar embryo forms by 14-18 days
what cells are present in the bilayer disk
hypoblast cells epiblast cells
when does the trilaminar embryo form and what is it made up of
by 14-18 days ectoderm mesoderm endoderm
what forms from the ectoderm
skin and CNS
what forms from the mesoderm
muscle blood skeleton heart kidneys
what forms from the endoderm
lungs liver gut
