Renal Development- Severson Flashcards
What structure gives rise to ureteric bud?
Mesonephric Duct
What structure serves to divide the cloaca?
Urorectal Septum
What structure grows into the intermediate mesoderm and initiates formation of the definitive kidney?
Ureteric bud
What is the definitive kidney called?
Metanephros
What structures arise from the ureteric bud?
Ureter
Renal Pelvis
major and minor calyces
Collecting ducts (tubules)
What induces formation of the nephrons from the intermediate mesoderm?
Arched collecting ducts
What cells from the glomerulus?
Endothelial cells growing into the renal capsule form the glomerulus
Which part of the developing embryo give rise to the nephrogenic and genital ridges?
Intermediate mesoderm
What does the mesonephric duct form?
Ductus deferens and ureteric bud
What structure gives rise to the penile urethra?
Urogenital sinus
What structure does the embryonic mesonephric ducts enter?
Cloaca (Urogenital Sinus)
What structure is NOT derived from the mesonephros?
A. Appendix of epididymis B. Ductus Deferens C. Epididymis D. Seminal Vesicles E. Urethra
E. Urethra (derived from the urogenital sinus)
The cranial part of the urogenital sinus is continuous with what structure?
Allantois
From what structure does the metanephrogenic diverticulum (ureteric bud) appear as a dorsal bud?
Mesonephric Duct
Embryologically, each nephron consists of two parts, the metanephric tubule and that derived from the ureteric bud. The two parts become confluent at what kidney structures?
Distal tubule and the collecting duct
