Fertilization and Implantation Flashcards
What is the first stage of embyrogenesis
cleavage
what does zygote produce during cleavage
morula
when does first cell division occur
36 hours after fertilization
what comes after morula
blastula
what does a trophoblast become
chorion
what is chorion
zygote contribution to placenta
what becomes the embryo
inner cell mass after formation of trophoblast
Embryogenesis steps
cleavage, morula, blastocyst, trophoblast, embryo
when does blastocyst implant in uterus
week after fertilization
what does blastocyst consist of
trophoblast and embryo
what is trophoblast
ring of cells on blastocyst surrounding a cavity
when is hCG essential for maintenance of endometrium
first trimester or three months until placenta develops
what is role of hCG
substitute for LH in maintaining corpus luteum
what is role of corpus luteum
maintain endometrium
amnion
fluid filled cavity containing embryo
yolk sac
first site of rbc synthesis in developing embryo
allantois
develops from embryonic gut and forms the blood vessels of the umbilical cord
function of umbilical cord
transport blood between embryo and placenta
amnion, yolk sac, and allantois come from where
inner cell mass of blastula
gastrulation
when the three primary germ layers become distinct
what are the three primary germ layers
ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm
Endoderm
inner layer
Ectoderm
outer layer
Mesoderm
develops from endoderm
