Module 1 - Lesson 1 Flashcards
The heart is one of the last organs to develop in the fetus. T/F
false - it is one of the first - this is because it requires more circulation as it develops - it is growing fast - needs the nutrients - cannot just rely on simple diffusion
the formation of the heart begins at ___
3 weeks gestation - 21-22 days
5 weeks by lmp
3 weeks gestation is __ weeks lmp
5 weeks lmp
5 weeks lmp is ____ weeks gestation
3
what begins at 3 weeks gestation
?
heart development
describe the development of the heart from 20-22 days
20 - 2 cardiogenic tubes
21- tubes begin to fuse
22- tubes are fused
>22 - undergoes twisting and turning to create different chambers
after the 2 cardiogenic tubes are fused the hear undergoes___________this happens at __days
twisting and turning
>22 days
the heart develops near the ______ of the embryo
head of the embryo
draw the primitive heart tube
what are the parts of the primitive heart tube from superior to inferior?
- aortic arch 1
- truncus arteriosus
- bulbis cordis
- primitive ventricle
- primitive atrium
- sinus venosus
how many parts of the primitive heart are there?
6
where is the aortic arch 1 and what does it develop into?
top of primitive heart
- develops into the pulmonary arteries and aortic arteries
the pulmonary arteries and aortic arteries are developed from the ______
aortic arch 1
the truncus arteriosus develops into the
aortic root and pulmonary root
the aortic root and pulmonary root arise from the
truncus arteriosus
the bulbis cordis devlops into the
R and L venticle outflow tracts
R and L venticle outflow tracts arise from the
bulbis cordis
the primitive ventricle develops into the
R and L ventricles
the R and L ventricles arise from the
primitive ventricle
the primitive atrium develops into the
R and L atriums
the sinus venosus has…
2 horns - right and left
the right horn of the sinus venosus develops into the
right atrium with IVC and SVC
the left horn of the sinus venosus develops into the
SA node, Oblique vein, coronary sinus
SA node, Oblique vein, coronary sinus arise from the
left horn of the sinus venosus
right atrium with IVC and SVC arises from the
right horn of the sinus venosus
what does discordant growth mean?
some areas of the heart grow faster than others - causes bending and twisting - called heart looping - happens to the right
