44
What is the thyroid gland formed from
-thyroid diverticulum
45
Where is thyroid diverticulum located
-caudal to the 1st pharyngeal arch
46
As thyroid descends, what does it remain connected to
-thyroglossal duct
47
What causes formation of thyroglossal duct cysts
-failure of thyroglossal duct to close before birth
48
Parathyroid glands migration
-once formed, attach to thyroid gland and descend from top of ventral pharynx to final location at level of 4th arch
49
Thymus migration
-migrates posteriorly and medially, independent of thyroid gland -after migration it is located inferior to thyroid and parathyroid glands
50
Mandibular prominences
-derived from first arch mesenchyme -make up lower stomodeal boundary
51
Maxillary prominences
-derived from the mesenchyme in first pharyngeal arch -forms lateral boundaries of stomodeum
52
Frontonasal prominence
-derived from cranial neural crest mesenchyme -upper border of stomodeum
53
Invagination of the face
-frontonasal prominence develops 2 sets of swellings called nasal placodes -nasal placodes form the nasal pits -which then results in formation of lateral and median nasal prominences
54
Fusion of the face
-maxillary prominences increase in size and merge laterally with mandibular prominences to form the cheeks
55
What does the nasolacrimal groove form
-the nasolacrimal duct
56
Chorion of placenta
-membrane that produces chorionic fluid -outermost membrane
57
Amnion of placenta
-membrane that holds amniotic fluid -innermost membrane containing fetus
58
Umbilical cord
-cord like structure arising from naval that connects fetus with placenta and contains 2 umbilical arteries and veins
59
Chorionic villi
-fingerlike projections that contain genetic material of the fetus
60
Chorionic villi purpose
-serve to increase surface area -maximize contact with maternal blood
61
Primary villi
-formed when cytotrphoblast penetrates syncytiotrophoblast and expands
62
Secondary villi
-in week 3 -develop as extraembryonic mesoderm grows
63
Tertiary villi
-end of week 3 -characterized as vascularization of secondary villi
64
Anchoring villi
-tertiary villi that grow towards decidua basalis
65
Branching villi
-grow from anchoring villi -increase surface area for exchange
66
When does spinal remodelling happen
-2nd month
67
Spinal artery remodelling
-maternal spiral arteries undergo remodelling to produce low resistance, high blood flow conditions to meet demands of fetus
68
How does spinal artery remodelling happen
-they undergo a epithelial to endothelial differentiation to increase diameter and reduce resistance
69
When does placenta development mainly happen
-3-4 months
70
When are the chorion frondosum and laeve formed
-month 3
71
Chorion frondosum
-formed from villi at embryonic pole
72
Chorion laeve
-formed from villi at abembryonic pole
73
When is the fetal membrane formed
-month 4
74
Fetal membrane formation
-chorion laeve fuses with decidua parietalis and the amniotic and chorionic membranes fuse
75
When does cytotrophoblast membrane dissipate
-month 4
76
Why does cytotrophoblast layer need to dissipate
-to decrease distance for diffusion and gas exchange
77
When does the placenta divide into cotyledons
-month 4
78
How are cotyledons formed
-from materal decidua protruding into intervillous space to create decidual septa
79
How do cotyledons divide placenta
-into lobules
80
What is the fetal side called
-villous chorion
81
What does the fetal side form
-the chorionic sac including the amnion, chorion, yolk sac, and allantois
82
What is the maternal side called
-the decidua
83
3 parts of the decidua
-decidua basalis -decidua capsularis -decidua parietalis
84
Decidua basalis
-deep at implantation site
85
Decidua capsularis
-covers implantation site
86
Decidua parietalis
-everything else
87
Exchange from maternal to fetal
-mainly oxygen and nutrients
88
Exchange from fetal to maternal
-mainly for elimination of carbon dioxide and other waste materials
89
Fetal circulation
-umbilical cord is not directly connected to mothers circulatory system -allows transfer of materials to and from mothers blood without direct mixing
90
What do umbilical arteries carry
-deoxygenated, nutrient depleted blood from fetus to placenta
91
What do umbilical veins carry
-oxygen, nutrient rich blood from placenta to fetus
92
Maternal circulation
-blood supply is derived from spiral arteries of endometrium
93
How does maternal blood flow
-flows around villi where exchange occurs -instead of being bounded in blood vessels
94
Reduction in maternal blood flow
-reduced size of fetus
95
What is the stomodeum
-primitive oral opening
96
Primary palate
-forms via the fusion of 2 medial prominences
97
What teeth are within the primary palate
-4 incisors of the upper jaw
98
Secondary palate
-forms via outgrowths of maxillary prominences called palatine shelves
99
Migration of the palatine shelves
-palatine shelves are outgrowth from maxilla -these shelves migrate obliquely downwards on either side of tongue
100
Fusion of the palatine shelves
-as the mouth grows and the tongue drops down, the palatine shelves fuse creating the secondary palate
101
Fusion of the palates
-anteriorly, the shelves fuse with the triangular primary palate incompletely -this formed the incisive foramen at the midline
102
Abnormal palate development: Cleft lip
-results from the palates and facial structures not developing properly
