78
Q

What is the layer of cells deep to the hypoblast?

What does it form?

A

Epiblast

forms the embryo

surrounds amniotic cavity

makes up the bilaminar embryonic disc (along with Hypoblast)

Q

Extraembryonic coelom

A

Cavity outside the embryo that dives the mesoderm into:

  • Extraembryonic somatic mesoderm
  • Extraembryonic splanchnic mesoderm
80
Q

Extraembryonic somatic mesoderm

A
  • lines cytotrophoblast layer of trophoblasts, more outer layer

(think somatic means body so on the outside)

81
Q

Extraembryonic splanchnic mesoderm

A

-surrounds umbilical vesicle and is the more inside layer

(think splanchnic means viscera so on the inside)

82
Q

Chorion

A

extraembryonic somatic mesoderm (outside layer) + trophoblast (cytotrophoblast + syncytiotrophoblast layers)

Q

What cells can form a Teratoma during Gastrulation?

What are the most common?

A
  • germ cell tumor from primitive streak cells that can be from any one (or all) germ layers; can contain hair, teeth, etc
  • Sacrococcygeal are most common
84
Q

What are the first cells to migrate through the Primitive Streak?

What cells do they kick out?

What layer/cells do they become?

A

Epiblast cells migrate through the streak, kick the Hypoblast cells out, form Endoderm

85
Q

At what end does the Primitive Streak form?

A

The Caudal End of Bilaminar Disc

86
Q

Where does the formation of the Notochordal Process begin?

What is the process structure?

A

Begins at the primitive node

Forms a hollow tube (nortochordal process)

87
Q

What is the signal center in the embryo?

A

Notochord

88
Q

What does the Notochord degenerate into?

A

Degenerates as vertebral bodies and makes nucleus pulposus (soft filling inside intervertebral disc)

89
Q

Describe the process of Gastrulation.

A

● First cells of epiblast to migrate and replace hypoblast layer = endoderm

● Next set of cells of epiblast to migrate and sit on top of newly made endoderm = mesoderm

● Last set of cells that sit on very top of newly formed mesoderm = ectoderm
