-cord like structure arising from naval that connects fetus with placenta and contains 2 umbilical arteries and veins

59
Q

Chorionic villi

A

-fingerlike projections that contain genetic material of the fetus

60
Q

Chorionic villi purpose

A

-serve to increase surface area
-maximize contact with maternal blood

61
Q

Primary villi

A

-formed when cytotrphoblast penetrates syncytiotrophoblast and expands

62
Q

Secondary villi

A

-in week 3
-develop as extraembryonic mesoderm grows

63
Q

-grow from anchoring villi
-increase surface area for exchange

66
Q

When does spinal remodelling happen

A

-2nd month

67
Q

Spinal artery remodelling

A

-maternal spiral arteries undergo remodelling to produce low resistance, high blood flow conditions to meet demands of fetus

68
Q

How does spinal artery remodelling happen

A

-they undergo a epithelial to endothelial differentiation to increase diameter and reduce resistance

69
Q

When does placenta development mainly happen

A

-3-4 months

70

A

-formed from villi at abembryonic pole

73
Q

When is the fetal membrane formed

A

-month 4

74
Q

Fetal membrane formation

A

-chorion laeve fuses with decidua parietalis and the amniotic and chorionic membranes fuse

75
Q

When does cytotrophoblast membrane dissipate

A

-month 4

76
Q

Why does cytotrophoblast layer need to dissipate

A

-to decrease distance for diffusion and gas exchange

77
Q

When does the placenta divide into cotyledons

A

-month 4

78
Q

How are cotyledons formed

A

-from materal decidua protruding into intervillous space to create decidual septa

79

80
Q

What is the fetal side called

A

-villous chorion

81
Q

A

-everything else

87
Q

Exchange from maternal to fetal

A

-mainly oxygen and nutrients

88
Q

Exchange from fetal to maternal

A

-mainly for elimination of carbon dioxide and other waste materials

89
