LEC48: The Branchial Arches Flashcards
model organism for understanding human head/neck structures
chick
defn of branchial
of or relating to the gills or to parts of the body derived from the embryonic branchial arches and clefts
4 components of branchial apparatus
1) branchial arches (pharyngeal arches)
2) pharyngeal pouches
3) branchial grooves (pharyngeal clefts)
4) branchial membranes
when in embryogenesis do branchial arches appear?
4th week
how many swellings by day 28?
4
when does largest branchial arch appear?
day 22
when do ruptured membranes occur in branchial arch development?
day 26
which branchial arches aren’t well understood?
5-6
how many branchial arches are there?
6
which branchial arches are very closely related?
6th & 4th
what migrates into branchial/pharyngeal arches?
neural crest cells
4 components of branchial arches
1) nerve
2) muscles derived from mesodermal mass of each arch
3) skeletal component- bone, cartilage, or precursor
4) artery (deriatives of aortic arch)
cranial nerve assoc w/ 1st branchial arch
CNV: trigeminal nerve (has 3 parts, V1, V2, V3)
cranial nerve assoc w/ 2nd branchial arch
CNVII: facial nerve
cranial nerve assoc w/ 3rd branchial arch
CNIX: glasopharyngeal nerve
cranial nerve assoc w/ 4th branchial arch
CNX: vagus nerve
cranial nerve assoc w/ 5th & 6th branchial arch
cranial root of spinal accessory n
CN XI via Vagus
where do head/neck muscles come from?
either from branchial arches or from structures that migrate into head/neck
where do muscles of head/neck originate from
myotomes, which’re from somites
tongue muscles derived from?
somites
ocular muscles derived from?
somitomeres
what surrounds area of developing inner ear?
meckel’s cartilage & reichert’s cartilage
where is meckel’s cartilage derived from? what does it become?
from branchial arch I
precursor of mandible
ear bones?
