Embryology & Histology Flashcards
Pinocytosis?
Process of taking liquids into a cell.
Drinking in.
What part of the cell is responsible for keeping the cytoplasm & organelles within the cell while allowing for molecules or substances to pass in and out of the cell?
The cell membrane.
Which embryonic germ layer does the epithelium come from?
Comes from all 3 layers.
What is the period of the fetus?
9–36th weeks of gestation. (Period of ovum-fertilization to 2 weeks gestation. Embryo—3-8weeks of gestation.)
From what process is the upper lip formed ?
Medial nasal process & maxillary process.
During what weeks of gestation are the hard and soft palate formed ?
6.5 —11 weeks.
During what weeks of gestation can a cleft lip from?
3.5—-6 weeks.
Which of the following is not true about cell membranes?
All true.
True —-Keep out, water in, merocrine secretion.
What cellular structure is responsible for cell energy?
Mitochondria
Rough ER contain granule of what ?
Ribosomes.
Which of the four layers form the ameloblasts?
Inner enamel epithelium.
If sufficient numbers or crystals are not laid down in the matrix or if the crystals so not grow sufficiently ?
Hypocalcified enamel results. Teeth are soft.
The protective cuticle layer over the enamel called the ______ or ________ is often stained green or yellow but can not be removed by polishing.
Primary enamel cuticle or Nasmyth’s membrane.
Space/ cracks between enamel rods are called _________ and are most often caused by trauma.
Enamel lamellae.
Which of the three types of dentin forms in response to trauma?
Reparative dentin.
What is the 1st sign of tooth development and when is it seen?
Dental lamina. 6 th embryonic week.
During what weeks of gestation can a cleft palate from?
6.5 —11 WEEKS.
The enamel organ comes from what germ layer?
Ectoderm.
What are the four layers of enamel organ as seen in the bell stage and what is their function?
Outer enamel epithelium —-protects and later aids in nourishment.
Inner enamel epithelium ——forms ameloblasts which form enamel.
Stellate reticulum———protection and nourishment.
Stratum intermedium——nourishment of ameloblasts from enamel epithelium also produce protein for possible use by ameloblasts & receives secretions from ameloblasts.
Whic enamel layer protect and nourishment all the way?
Stellate reticulum.
