embryology vasculature Flashcards
timeframe of vessel formation
week 3- birth
diffusion time period
first 2 weeks: zygotic period
vitelline time period
week 3-8 (emb period)
when does heart beat
day 21
Placental stage period
week 9-birth (fetal period)
after yolk contents are depleted
how many arteries and veins in umbilical cord
2 arteries and 1 vein
what is the purpose of the vitelline vessels
bring nutrients from yolk cavity to the interior of the embryo
- also skin is forming and preventing diffusion of oxygen
when is the neonatal circulation stage
at birth when systemic and pulmonary circuits become distinct
what do hemangioblasts form
primitive erythrocytes and endothelial precursor cells
- hemangiogenesis is coulpled to hematopoesis
what is the main hematopoietic organ of embryo and fetus
the liver
by day 60 switch from yolk sac and liver occurs
outside the embryo and yolk sac derivative
extra embryonic mesoderm
inside the embryo and yolk sac derivative
intraembryonic mesoderm
hemangiogenesis coupled to hematopoiesis where
outside embryo
hemangiogenesis not coupled to hematopoiesis where
inside the embryo
hemangioblasts are where
outside embryo, none inside
vasculogenesis
formation of vessels from scratch: occurs in the yolk sac
angiogenesis
formation of vessels from existing vessels
how does sprouting angiogenesis work
part of vessels stalk off
