Preimplantation, Emryonic, Fetal Flashcards
Embryonic stage:
Day 4- 8 weeks
Fetal stage:
8 weeks- birth
Chromosomal #
Mitosis-
Meiosis-
Mitosis- 1 parents cells divides and creates 2 daughter cells with same genetic complement.
*Diploid
Meiosis- creates daughter cells with half the # of chromosomes compared to the parent cell.
*Haploid
Preimplantation:
Fertilization-
Zygote-
Union of sperm and ovum
Newly formed cell with diploid # of chromosomes
*different from parent, undergoes meiosis
Preimplantation:
Morula-
Blastocyst-
Solid mass of cells
Fluid filled collection of cells
Embryonic period:
Blastocyst to embryo stage-
From 2nd to 8th week
Embryonic period:
Cytodifferentation- what are the 2 types
Receptors
Processes
Cytodifferentation receptors:
None present-
Couple receptors-
More receptors-
Still more receptors-
Cells will die
Couple receptors
Cells proliferate
Cells differentiate
Cytodifferentation processes:
Autocrine-
Paracrine-
Cell receives hormone or receptor stimulation from a substance produced by itself
cell receives hormone or receptor stimulation from a substance produced by a different cell
Preimplantation stage:
4-7 days
Types of growth:
Aptosis-
Induction-
Programmed cell death.
*babies have webbed hands before birth. Aptosis kills those cells and cause fingers.
1 group of cells starting development of another cellular group.
Types of growth:
Proliferation-
Interstitial-
Appositional-
More cells (a lot of)
Additional outer layers of cells *outside ball
occurs deep within a tissue *inside ball
Differentiation:
Histodifferentiation-
Morphodifferentiation-
Development of different tissues.
Development of different form = structure or shape
Differentiation:
Morphogenesis-
Maturation-
Process where tissues evolve into more complex structures. *shape very specific (complex) ex-enamel
Ongoing physiological processes which impacts the final form/function.
Second week:
Blaminar embryonic disc-
Amniotic cavity-
Forms directly from the blastocyst
*epiblast layer, hypoblast layer
Fluid filled
