midterm 1 Flashcards
gestation
from when sperm&egg meet to birth
-9 month period
mesenchyme
fetal connective tissue where things will develop from
oogenesis
the formation of mature oocyte/egg from a small germ cell precursor during the embryonic period
ploidy
number
diploid cell
double the number of chromosomes found within a mature germ cell
-human cells are diploid with 23 pairs of chromosomes
haploid
one set of chromosomes
-formed by meiosis
germ cell
either the egg or sperm
somatic
the whole body besides reproductive areas
-so a somatic cell would be found throughout the body
germ
reproductive parts
-these are haploid
stages of development
fertilization (includes zygote, morula and blastocyst), pre-embryonic period, gastrulation, embryonic period and fetal period
fertilization
egg and sperm meet
-within ovarian cavity
zygote
single celled organism
-within ovarian/fallopian tubes
morula
formed after multiplication of zygote occurs
-within fallopian tubes
blastocyst
occurs when cells organize into inner and outer cell mass
-implants within uterus
pre-embryonic period
after fertilization to around the 2nd week
-main component is gastrulation
-germ layers form during this stage
gastrulation
when the germ layers are being developed and mature
-primitive streak is formed
-cell of the epiblast go to the streak
-invagination of these cells occurs and due to the outcome they will either become endoderm, mesoderm or ectoderm
-invagination occurs until the 4th week
3 germ layers
ectoderm : organs and tissues with contact to the outside world
mesoderm : organs and tissue internally
endoderm : GI tract
example of what develops from ectoderm
CNS, PNS, meninges, lens of eye, sensory epithelium of ear, nose and eyes
example of what develops from mesoderm
cartilage and bone, dermis, smooth muscle, blood and lymph nodes, kidneys, gonads and spleen
examples of what develops from the endoderm
epithelial lining of the respiratory tract, lymphatic cavity and eustachian tube
-big one is the GI tract
embryonic period
3rd to 8th week
-period of organ development
-nervous system development (from neural crest cells)
-cardiovascular system
-other organ systems (such as gut, urinary system and gonads)
fetal period
3rd month (9th week) to birth
-maturation of organs and tissues
-fetus looks more human
what do germ cells/layers give rise to
all fetal tissues and organs
how does exposure to teratogens affect the fetus in the embryonic period? fetal period?
embryonic period - death of could affect system wide/multi-system depending on when exposure occurs
fetal period - may interfere with growth and normal functions such as postnatal behavior
pharyngeal or branchial arches
what develops into major features of the ears, face and palate emerge during the embryonic period
what arches develop into all structures relating to the ear
1st and 2nd
how do the arches pair
there are arches 1-6
-arch 5 disappears
-4 and 6 then fuse together
what separates the arches
clefts and pouches
-clefts are external
-pouches are internal
what is a main reason why HL is a part of many disorders?
they develop from the 1st and 2nd arch which also develops many features of the face
how does the external auditory canal form
1 and 2nd arch cleft
-begins around week 6 with the invagination of the 1st cleft
-ends around week 26 with the recanalization of the connective tissue plug
-recanalization forms the canal BUT continues to mature until 6-7 years of age
how does the tympanic membrane/ear drum form
branchial membranes
-outer layer of membrane is ectodermal
-middle layer is mesoderm
-inner layer is endoderm (the lining of the tympanic cavity)
how does the tympanic cavity and eustachian tube form
pharyngeal pouches
-begins around week 8 and ends around week 21
-tubotympanic recess of the 1st pouch
-cilia within middle ear clears mucus and pathogens through the tube
how do the ossicles form
pharyngeal arches (1st and 2nd)
-starts with tubotympanic recess that are embedded within the mesenchyme
-during 8th month, cavity envelopes the ossicles resulting in a lever system
how do middle ear muscles and bones form
develops from pharyngeal arches
-1st arch leads to tensor tympani muscle, malleus and incus
-2nd arch leads to stapedius muscle and stapes
how does the pinna form
from size mesenchymal projections that develop from neural crest cells
-projections are called hillocks which are between the 1st and 2nd arches
-arrive during the 5th week and by the 7th week enlarge and fuse to form the pinna
development of the inner ear
22 days : otic placode appears and will thicken and invagination will occur
28 days : otic vesicle will separate from surface ectoderm
6th week : saccule forms a tubular in the low pole, which is the cochlea and after 8 week it will have 2 3/4 turns
9th week : mesenchyme surround inner ear labyrinth forms a capsule which becomes the petrous portion of the temporal bone
development of the cochlea
begins around the 10th week
-cartilage forms two spaces scale vestibuli and scala tympani)
-epithelial cells of the duct will form two ridges (tectorial membrane being one which houses OHC and IHC)
development of the vestibular system
around 6th week the SCC appear as pockets of the utricle portion
-central will give rise to canals
-one end of each dilates to form the crus ampullare
-macule in the utricle and saccule are sensitive to linear motion
difference between somatic and germ cell
somatic - throughout the body
germ - egg and sperm (can have new organisms develop from)
prokaryotic cell
not human
-no membrane bound nucleus or organelles
-most are bacteria
eukaryotic cells
human
-nucleus contains DNA
plasma or cell membrane
separates the interior of the cell from the outside
-controls the flow of molecules in and out
-prevents free flow
-bilayer of phospholipid molecules
explain the bilayer phospholipid molecules
hydrophobic fatty acid tails : facing inward
hydrophilic head : facing outward
mitochondria
battery of the cell and is a energy source that produces most of the ATP
-contains cristae where energy comes from
nucleus
largest and most prominent of the organelles
-responsible for growth and reproduction of the cell
-contains DNA
chromatin
contains genetic information that is organized in genes that determines the shape, structure and range of functions carried out by the cell
