Human Development- EXAM I Flashcards
What the are three main stages of human development and when do they take place?
Proliferation period: (0-3 weeks)
Embryonic period: (3-8 weeks)
Fetal development period (9 weeks to term)
Fertilization of the ovum yields a:
Zygote
The zygote has a full compliment of genetic material rendering it:
Diploid
The zygote undergoes mitotic division forming a:
Blastomere
Greater than 32 blastomeres creates a:
Morula
At what cell stage foes the morula develop an internal blastocystic cavity?
64 cell stage
When the morula develops an internal blastocystic cavity it is now referred to as:
Blastocyst
Any mass that is lined with any type of cell (typically an epithelium), hollow inside, and sometimes filled with fluid:
Cyst
The blastocyst will start traveling down the uterus and:
Implants itself into the uterine wall
Once the blastocyst implants itself into the uterine wall it will create arms that anchor it in place called:
Syncytiotrophoblasts
The blastocyst develops an inner cells mass at 6-7b days and is now referred to as an:
Embryoblast
Implantation of the embryoblast into the uterine wall begins at day _____ and is complete at day _____
4; 10
After the blastocyst implants into the uterine wall it will become:
Enveloped into the uterine wall
The inner cell mass of the embryoblast transitions into the:
Bilaminar embryonic disc
At the stage in which the embryoblast envelopes into the uterine wall and becomes bilmainar disc it is now able to receive:
Blood supply, nutrients & protection
The outter cell mass of the bilaminar embryonic disc becomes the _____ & _____ layers
Cytotrophoblast & Syntrophoblast
The Cytotrophoblast & Syntrophoblast layers are precursors to the:
Placenta
What two layers make up the bilaminar embryonic disc?
Epiblast layer & Hypoblast layer
The epiblast layer of the bilaminar disc is comprised of:
Ectoderm & mesoderm
The hypoblast layer of the bilaminar disc is comprised of:
Endoderm
The large cavity that forms at the top, just under the hypoblast forms the:
Yolk sac
The development of a secondary cavity above the epiblast forms the:
Amniotic cavity
List the structures associated with the bilaminar embryonic disc: (6)
- Epiblast layer
- Hypoblast layer
- Amniotic cavity
- Blastocyst cavity
- Syntrophoblasts
- Cytotrophoblasts
Enlargement of the amniotic cavity & migration of cells out of the hypoblast form the:
Heuser’s membrane
