Pharyngeal Arches Flashcards
List the 5 initially identical structures of a pharyngeal arch
- nerve, cartilage and artery
- Pharyngeal pouch
- Pharyngeal cleft
- mesenchymal core
- Pharyngeal membrane
A Pharyngeal membrane is what?
bilaminar
The entire apparatus consists of what 4 things?
paired pharyngeal arches, pharyngeal pouches, pharyngeal clefts (or grooves), and pharyngeal membranes
Each pharyngeal arch consists of a core of what two things?
somatic mesoderm and neural crest mesenchyme
Somatic mesoderm contributes to which two things?
the arch artery (i.e. aortic arches 1-6) as well as skeletal muscle tissue in each arch
Neural crest mesenchyme typically develops into what?
bone, nervous, cartilage, and/or connective tissue in each arch.
The inside of the pharyngeal apparatus is lined by what?
endoderm that forms in-foldings or pouches between the arches
Since there are 5 arches, how many pouches are there?
4
The outside of the pharyngeal apparatus is covered by what?
ectoderm that forms outer pharyngeal clefts
The first pharyngeal arch divides into what two things?
a maxillary process and a mandibular process
The maxillary cartilage (palatopterygoquadrate) and mandibular cartilage (meckel’s), originate from what?
neural crest cells
The maxillary cartilage forms what?
the incus of the middle ear and a small bone located in the orbital wall called the alisphenoid
The mandibular cartilage forms what?
the malleus of the middle ear
The first pharyngeal arch is associated with which aortic arch?
First
The aortic arches are also know as what?
pharyngeal arch arteries
The Somatic mesoderm of the first pharyngeal arch gives rise to what?
the terminal branch of the maxillary artery
The somatic mesoderm of the first pharyngeal arch gives rise to what muscles?
the muscles of mastication
First pharyngeal membrane develops into the:
tympanic membrane
Neural crest mesenchyme from the first pharyngeal arch forms:
The Maxilla
Mandible
Zygomatic and squamous portion of the temporal bone
The maxillary and mandibular processes of the first arch are innervated respectively, by the maxillary and mandibular branches of what?
trigeminal nerve #5
The trigeminal nerve #5 originates from what?
neural plate/neural crest cells
The second arch cartilage is called what?
Reichert’s
The second arch cartilage gives rise to what 5 things?
The stapes of the middle ear The styloid process of the temporal bone The fibrous styloid hyoid ligament The lesser horns of the hyoid bone The upper rim of the body of the hyoid bone
The second pharyngeal arch gives rise to what artery?
stapedial artery
Second pharyngeal arch somatic mesoderm give rise to
muscles of facial expression
The second arch is innervated by what?
facial nerve #7
Where does facial never #7 originate?
the neural plate/neural crest cells
During the fourth and fifth weeks, the rapidly expanding second pharyngeal arch overgrows what?
clefts 2,3 and 4
The second pharyngeal arch fuses caudally with the cardiac eminence forming a what?
lateral cervical sinus
The lateral cervical sinus occasionally persists on one or both sides in the form of what? Located where?
cervical cyst, just anterior to the sternocleidomastoid muscle.
A completely enclosed cyst may expand to form what?
palpable lump
