Q

How do monozygotic twins form?

A

Within the zona pellucida, we get the formation of:
- 2 blastocysts

The 2 blastocysts merge and we get 2 inner cell masses within 1 blastocyst.

The blastocyst divides as it emerges from the zona pellucida.

Q

What are neural crest cells?

A

Migratory cells that move to other parts of the body and give rise to a diverse cell lineage.
- melanocytes, cartilage, smooth muscle, bone etc.

Q

What is mesenchyme?

A

Mixture of mesoderm and neural crest cells

18
Q

What are pharyngeal arches?

A

Six paired aggregations of mesenchyme on either side of the developing pharynx.

19
Q

What is each pharyngeal arch covered by laterally?

A

Pharyngeal Cleft (Surface Ectoderm)

20
Q

What is each pharyngeal arch covered by medially?

A

Pharyngeal pouch (Endoderm)

21
Q

How are the three germ layers arranged for pharyngeal arches?

A

The surface ectoderm forms pharyngeal cleft on the lateral aspect of the arch.

The endoderm forms the pharyngeal pouch on the medial aspect of the arch.

The mesoderm combines with neural crest cells to form mesenchyme that makes the pharyngeal arch.

22
Q

What is the direction of development of the pharyngeal arches?

A

Cranio-caudal

- Arch 1 appears first
