Embryology Test 2 Flashcards
The intraembryonic coelom forms during week 3 of development. Where does this occur?
btw somatic and splanchnic mesoderm
A primary outcome of caudal longitudinal folding is formation of the?
hindgut
What is the source of the mesothelium that makes up the parietal pericardium?
lateral somatic mesoderm
The mesenchyme of the pleuropericardial folds give rise to which layer?
fibrous pericardium
What is the source of the mesothelium that makes up the visceral pericardium?
proepicardial primordium
The central tendon of the diaphragm develops from which area?
Septum transversum
Delayed/ failed closure by which area typically accounts for diaphramatic hernia formation?
pleuroperitoneal membranes
The duodenum and ascending / descending colon are secondarily retroperitoneal. What does that mean?
develop in the peritonial cavity but end up outside of it
The process of blood vessel formation by sprouting from preexisting vasculogenic cords is termed?
angiogenesis
Extraembryonic vasculogenesis and hematopoiesis occurse where?
yolk sac splanchnopleure, allantoic splanchnic mesoderm, and chorionic somatopleure

fetal
Why is the embryonic AGM region important?
initial site of intraembryonic hematopoiesis
The Rh-incompatibility syndrome (hemolytic disease of newborn) includes?
hemolytic anemia, edema, jaundice, and erythroblastosis (RBC) overproduction
The heart and vascular endothlium primarily derive from which layer?
lateral splanchnic mesoderm

cranial embryonic folding
Which sequence includes the four chamber that characterize the primary heart tube?
sinus venosus, atrium, ventricle, and bulbis cordis
The coronary vascular smooth muscle derives from which source?
proepicardial primordium
The somatic mesoderm lining the early pericardial cavity contributes to the formation of which area?
parietal pericardium

foramen ovale
The definitive right ventricle derives primarily from which area of the embryonic heart tube?
bulbis cordis
The ventricular papillary muscles derive from which source?
myocardium
The adult truncus arteriosus derives from which area of the primary hear tube?
bulbis cordis
A major part of the adult left atrium actually derives from which structure?
pulmonary veins
The sinus venarium of the right atrium actually derives from which portion of the primordial heart?
right sinus venosus
