Extra Embryonic Membranes of Mammals and Avians Flashcards

1
Q

Soon after successful fertilization, the zygote undergoes cleavage or segmentation division (type of cleavage depends on the amount of yolk material) and moves along the uterine tube and enters the uterus. Movement or transport of the embryo towards the uterus is a combination of ciliary (swaying movement of the epithelial cilia of the of the endometrium) and muscular contraction of the myometrium.

Q

Implantation/Nidation occurs in three stages in domestic animals: (3)

A
  • Apposition of the blastocyst or foetal membranes to the uterine epithelium

Q

*Forms of Implantation

Blastocyst implants itself interstitially by passing through the uterine epithelium and becoming completely cut off from the uterine lumen. This is true in primates, guinea pigs and human.

somatopleure

21
Q

The allantois and yolk sac are from the
__________ (fused mesoderm and endoderm).

A

Yolk sac
liver
bone marrow

24
Q

A

Meckel’s diverticulum.

25
Q

In avian the perimeter of the yolk sac is marked by a blood vessel called

A

sinus terminalis or marginal vein

26
Q
