_________________ the time between conception and birth
Prenatal Period:
__________________ the first 8 weeks in which all major organs are developed
Embryonic period=
________________“early form of the body”
Embryo:
_________________: the remaining 30 weeks in which organs grow larger and more complex
Fetal period
_________________ “the young in the womb”
Fetus:
Skin: has two layers _____________________
epidermis and dermis
__________________ consists most of trunk muscles and contains the vertebral column, the spinal cord and attaching ribs
Outer body wall:
__________________ is composed of the respiratory and digestive structures
Inner body cavity and inner tube:
The section through the abdomen shows the peritoneal cavity, lined by ___________ surrounding the digestive tube (stomach, intestines, and so on). The digestive tube has a muscular wall and is lined internally by a sheet of cells. (This lining is shown in yellow)
visceral and parietal serosae,
The respiratory structures (trachea, lungs, and bronchi) form from the inner tube. The body cavities in the thorax are _______________ around the lungs and the ________________ surrounding the heart. Parietal and visceral serosae line these cavities as well
the pleural cavity
pericardial cavity
Kidneys and gonads: The kidneys lie directly deep to the dorsal body wall,______________________________The gonads (testes or ovaries) originate in a similar position but migrate to other body regions during the fetal period.
in the lumbar region of the back posterior to the parietal serosa.
___________ toward the head or upper part of structure/ body
Superior/ Cranial:
_____________ away from the head or toward the lower part of a structure/body
Inferior/ Caudal:
_____________________ Toward the midline of the body, on the inner side of the body
Medial:
___________________Away from the midline of the body, on the outer side of the body
Lateral:
__________________ Closer to the origin of the body part or point of attachment
Proximal:
_____________ Further away from the origin of the body part or point of attachment
Distal:
______________on the same side as
Ipislateral:
__________ on the opposite side as
Contralateral:
_______________Toward the front or at the front of the body
Anterior/ventral:
________________Toward the back of the body
Posterior/ dorsal:
_______________ an immature egg that one of a fertile woman’s two ovaries releases
Oocyte:
______________ a direct route to the uterus (womb) and the sight of fertilization
Uterine tube:
______________ the fertilized oocyte
Zygote:
___________________ the rapid cell division of a zygote that provides enough cells to become an embryo. cell growth between divisions, the resulting cells become smaller and smaller.
Cleavage:
___________________: The fluid filled structure that results after the morula. During day 4, the late morula—now consisting of about 60 cells—enters the uterus. It takes up fluid, which gathers into a central cavity.
Blastocyst
_________________ The outer cells surrounding the cavity that will eventually form the placenta
Trophoblast:
__________________ The cluster of cells on one side of the blastocyst cavity, that will eventually form the embryo
Inner cells:
__________________ the final stage of the blastocyst in which the trophoblast layer erodes inward until the entire blastocyst is embedded in the uterine wall.
Implantation:
About 9 days after fertilization, the inner cell mass has divided into two sheets of cells, _______________________
the epiblast and hypoblast
