Musculoskeletal Development Flashcards
embryonic sources of skeletal system
- paraxial mesoderm (somites)
- lateral plate mesoderm
- neural crest cells
paraxial mesoderm deriviatives
mesenchyme -> vertebral column, ribs, neruocranium, annulus fibrosis
lateral plate mesoderm derivatives
mesenchyme -> pectoral girdle, pelvic girdle, limbs, sternum
neural crest cell derivatives
mesenchyme -> viscerocranium and hyoid bone
what forms all of the axial skeleton except sternum and portion of skull?
sclerotome
what occurs for vertebral development i nthe 4th week?
sclerotome cells surround neural tube and notocord
what are the portions that will for vertebra?
less dense cranial portion and dense caudal portion
how do the portions of the vertebra fuse?
dense portions (forms annulus fibrosis), fuses with less dnese portion immediately inferior to form vertebral body
sclerotome resegmentation
6th week: chondrification
7th week: ossification
rib development
grows out as lateral extensions of coastal processes developing from thoracic vertebrae and wrap around anteriorly
synovial joints form where costal processes and vertebrae meet
sternum development
induced to form form ribs at ventral midline from lateral plate somatic mesoderm
week 10: develops as two bars that fuse cranial to caudal
what are the two parts of the skull and what are they formed from?
- viscerocranium: neural crest cells
2. neurocranium: paraxial mesoderm (occipital somites form portion)
what skull bones form from endochondral ossification?
sphenoid, petrous part of temporal bone, portion of occipital bone
what skull bones form from intramembranous ossification?
all other bones (flat bones surrounding brain)
what are sutures?
membranous and flexible joints in infants
what are fontanelles?
enlarged membranous spaces where more than two bones meet
anterior, posterior, sphenoidal, mastoid
what does the appendicular skeleton from from?
lateral plate somatic mesoderm
what type of bone development occurs in the appendicular skeleton?
endochondral ossification
what occurs during the 5th week of appendicular skeleton development?
condensations of mesenchyme appear in limb buds
what occurs during the 6th week of appendicular skeleton development?
mesenchymal bone models undergo chondrification to form hyaline cartilage models
what occurs during the 7/8th week of appendicular skeleton development?
ossification begins in long bones, initially in diaphysis at primary ossification centers
