Exam 1 weeks 2 & 3 Flashcards
On the 8th day what two parts do the blastocyst become?
Embryoblast and Trophoblast
What two layers do the embryoblast become?
Epiblast and Hypoblast
What 2 layers do the trophoblast become?
Cytotrophoblast and Synctiotrophoblast
What releases amnionic fluid into the cavity?
What method is amnionic fluid absorbed?
- Embryo peeing and maternal secretion
- Embryo ingests fluid
Polyhydraminios: ?
Oligohydramnios: ?
Polyhydraminios: excess amnionic fluid.
Oligohydraminos: too little amniontic fluid
What is the name for the inner lining of the primary yolk sac (originally extraembryonic endoderm?
Heuser’s membrane
What are the two layers of extraembryonic mesoderm and what do they form?
Somatopleuric (forms the chorion) and splanchnopleuric (contributes to the umbilical cord)
What does the syncytiotrophoblast secrete, and what differentiates from Cytotrophoblast?
HcG, lose their cell structure, multinucleated blob while cytotrophoblast maintain cell structure.
On day 9 what does uteroplacental strutures form?
Trophoblastic lacunae and the maternal sinusoids
How does the embryo receive nutrients on the first week?
Through simple diffusion
On day 16 extraembryonic mesoderm extends into primary stem villi mak
On day 16-26 how does the embryo receive nutrients?
-Secondary stem villi the mesoderm extends into the primary stem villi.
By the end of 3rd week how does the embryo receive nutrients?
Tertiary stem villi: the villus has formed blood vessels that connect to forming fetal blood vessels.
What layers must material crossing between mother and fetus transverse?
Synciotrophoblast, cytotrophoblast, connective tissue, wall of the blood vessel
What is the chorion (which helps form the placenta) is composed of?
- syncytiotrophoblast
- Cytotrophoblast
- Somatopleuric layer of extrembryonic mesoderm
- What genetic parent donates contributes more to the formation of the trophoblast?
- What genetic parent donates contributes more to the formation of the embryoblast?
- The father
- the mother
