Exam 2 - Lecture 28 (Nervous & Cardio Systems) Flashcards
What are the 3 primary vesicles of the brain during development?
- Forebrain
- Midbrain
- Hindbrain
What is another name for the forebrain?
Prosencephalon
What is another name for the midbrain?
Mesencephalon
What is another name for the hindbrain?
Rhombencephalon
What are the 2 layers that make up the wall that surrounds the neural tube?
Mantel layer and marginal layer
What arises from the 3 primary brain vesicles?
5 secondary vesicles
How many vesicles does the forebrain divide into?
2 (1 and 2)
How many vesicles does the midbrain divide into?
1 (3)
How many vesicles does the hindbrain divide into?
2 (4 and 5)
What do the walls of the vesicles eventually give rise to?
Neural structures
What do the 5 secondary vesicles of the brain eventually give rise to?
Cavities/ventricles
What does vesicle #1 give rise to (wall and cavity)?
Wall = cerebral hemispheres Cavity = lateral ventricles
What does vesicle #2 give rise to (wall and cavity)?
Wall = Thalami Cavity = 3rd ventricle
What does vesicle #3 give rise to (wall and cavity)?
Wall = Midbrain Cavity = aqueduct
What does vesicle #4 give rise to (wall and cavity)?
Wall = Pons and cerebellum Cavity = upper part of 4th ventricle
What does vesicle #5 give rise to (wall and cavity)?
Wall = Medulla Cavity = Lower part of 4th ventricle
Which part of the brain gives rise to the only cavity that is not a cavity?
midbrain/3rd vesicle –> aqueduct
What is the definition of a nucleus when we refer to hindbrain development?
Collection of neuronal cell bodies in the CNS
What are the 3 steps to hindbrain/cerebellum formation?
- Rhombic lips form
- Rhombic lips advance toward each other and make contact
- Cells of external germinal layer divide and descend into cerebellum, connecting with Purkinje neurons
What are the 6 steps to forebrain (cerebrum) development?
- Cells/neurons in the mantel layer divide
- Cells pass thru marginal layer
- Cells in mantel layer divide again
- Cells pass thru marginal layer past 1st wave of cells
- Cells in mantel layer divide a 3rd time
- Cells pass thru marginal layer past 2nd wave of cells
Why is gray matter on the outside in the brain?
Successive waves of dividing neurons passing one another after going thru the mantel layer
What 2 things are successive waves of migration important for?
- Formation of sulcus
2. Formation of gyrus
What is a sulcus of the brain?
depression
What is a gyrus of the brain?
elevation
What are the 5 types of brain malformations?
- Cerebellar hypoplasia
- Anencephaly
- Lissencephaly
- Cranium bifidum
- Hydrocephalus
