L34 Flashcards
How long is the human gestation period from fertilization? What about from last menstrual cycle?
266 days from fertilization
280 days menstrual cycle
2 week different
what is the 3 stage of prenatal ?
pre-embryonic 0 to 2 week
embryonic 2 to 8 week
fetal periods 9 to birth
Obstetricians commonly split the gestation period into what?
trimerster
they divide the 9-month period of gestation into three trimesters.
what is the most critical stages of development
the first
trimester when embryonic and early fetal development is occurring
Where specifically does fertilization occur?
The ampula of the Fallopian tube
morula [ 12-16 cells ] form at which day ?
3 day after fertilazation
what happen at day 4 ?
Early blastocyst is formed (Morula hollows out, fills with fluid, and “hatches” from the
zona pellucida ZP)
what happen at day 7 ?
implanting blastocyst that consist of inner mass[ embryoblast ] and outer mass [ trophoblast]
and the The fertilization membrane (zona pellucida) has degenerated and disappeared in order for the trophoblast to implant into the uterus
during implantation the uterus is in which phase ?
secretory phase [ progesterone phase ]
Where exactly does the blastocyst implant?
On the posterior wall of the body of the uterus
what happen in day 8?
• The trophoblast at the embryonic pole differentiates into 2 layers:- Cytotrophoblast - Syncytiotrophoblast
•
cells of the inner cell mass (embryoblast) also differentiate into two layers: - Epiblast - Hypoblast
• At the same time, a small cavity appears in the epiblast called the amniotic cavity.
true or false
amniotic cavity apeers in hypoblast
false it appere in the epiblast
What happens at day 9?
Amniotic cavity expands
embryo is now a bilaminar disk (Epiblast and Hypoblast thicken)
Exocoloemic cavity (primary yolk sac) forms, and the Exocoelomic membrane, made from the Hypoblast, surrounds it (it is continuous with the Hypoblast)
What happens at days 11 and 12?
By the 11th- 12th day, the blastocyst is completely embedded in the endometrial stroma and uteroplacental circulation has been established.
- Extraembryonic mesoderm has been developed; soon large cavities formed in it then
become confluent to form extraembryonic coelom (chorionic cavity)………
the extraembryonic coelom [ chorionic cavity ] sorrounds?
the primary yolc sack and aminotic cavity
