22
Q

Secondary palate (future roof of mouth) arises later from the medial aspects of the _____ > palatal shelves.

A

MXPs

23
Q

After immigration of cranial neural crest cells, growth & morphogenesis of the face is controlled by ongoing ________ interactions

A

epithelial-mesenchymal

24
Q

______ cells primarily determine facial form/shape

A

Cranial neural crest cells (CNCC)

25
Q

T/F: transplanted ectoderm retains FGF8/SHH pattern of expression from originating tissue.

A

True

26
Q

T/F: Secreted factors from the FEZ can direct outgrowth of the underlying CNCC and determines D-V pattern of the FNP, but precise shape depends upon pattern information inherent in the neural crest.

A

True

27
Q

A dynamic ____ does the following 3 things:

  1. Support and direct outgrowth of the facial processes
  2. Guides differentiation of CNC
  3. Facilitating timely fusion of the facial processes
A

Ectoderm

28
Q

Fusion establishes the _______ and goes on to form the alveolus & lip proper

A

primary palate

29
Q

Fusion establishes the primary palate and goes on to form the _____ and _______

A

alveolus & lip proper

30
Q

Full fusion is required to ensure the _______ is continuous

A

alveolar bone

31
Q

Cleft lip +/-cleft primary palate is ____ most common birth defect (~1 in 700 births world-wide)

A

Third

32
Q

What week of development does the secondary palate form

A

10th week

33
Q

What week of development does the primary palate/lip form

A

7th week

34
Q

Ossification of the secondary palate (osteoblasts derived from CNCC) begins just _____ palatal development complete

A

before

35
Q

  2. Elevation & rotation
  3. Medial growth & fusion at midline and with nasal septum
A

Secondary palate

36
Q

Cleft secondary palate can result from what 3 things?

A

1) poor growth of shelves,
2) failed elevation, or
3) failed fusion

37
Q

______ can provide a physical barrier to secondary palate closure

A
