Mammalian Test #1 Flashcards
Tbx and Pitx1
transcription factors resulting in Fgf10 expression in LPM over 5 somite domain
Fgf10
factor stimulating Apical Ectodermal Ridge (AER)
Fgf8
Expressed by AER, stimulates proliferation of LPM and Fgf8 formation (positive feedback limb bud formation)
Plantigrade
Walk on plantar surface of foot
Digitigrade
Walk on digits
Unguligrade
Walk on toes/hooves

cursorial advantages
- feeding/foraging over long areas
- migrating
- can overtake prey/run from predators
levels of muscle sheaths
endomysium -> perimysium -> epimysium
