Q
(Basal/Alar)
Which neural plate contains motor neurons?
A
Basal plate
1
Q
(Basal/Alar)
Which neural plate contains sensory neurons?
A
Alar
2
Q
What structure induces the formation of the neural plate?
A
The notochord induces overlying ectoderm to differentiate into neural ectoderm. Next, neuroectoderm forms the neural plate.
3
Q
What structure gives rise to the neural tube and the neural crest cells?
A. Notochord
B. Neural ectoderm
C. Neural plate
D. Alar plate
A
C, neural plate.
Note, the notochord induces the formation of the neuroectoderm. The neuroectoderm differentiates into the neural plate and the neural plate becomes both the neural tube and neural crest cells.

Q
What are the three primary vesicles of the brain?
A
Forebrain, midbrain, hindbrain
