Q

Development of Limb Bones

A

Cartilage models form (cartilage is softer than bone), cartilage model is replaced by bone, cartilage remandes at ends of bone and at epiphyseal plate

Q

Epiphyseal plate

A

cartilage between diaphysis and epiphysis. Bones is added here to lengthen bones. Becomes replaced by bone at maturity.

Q

large intestine

A

shorter, large-diameter intestine

17
Q

Gut

A

digestive tube. Forms by folding at sides, head, tail

18
Q

Gut folding at sides

A

ectoderm and mesoderm fold toward chest. Folds of mesoderm enclose endoderm. Endoderm forms inside of gut, mesoderm surrounds inside of gut.

19
Q

Foregut

A

gut at head of embryo. Formed by folding at head and sides. Forms pharynx, esophagus, stomach, beginning of small intestine.

20
Q

Midgut

A

Gut at middle of embryo. Open to yolk sac. Forms most of small intestine and most of large intestine.

21
Q

Hindgut

A

gut at “tail” of embryo. Formed by folding at “tail” and sides. Forms end of large intestine.

22
Q

Esophagus

A

comes from foregut. Starts as short tube. Grows in length.

23
Q

Stomach

A

comes from foregut. Enlarges to achieve basic shape. Rotates into place, pulls attached organs into place too.

24
Q

Small intestine

A

from foregut + midgut. Grows too big to fit in torse, so part pushes into umbilical chord.

25
Q

Abdominal cavity

A

cavity in lower half of torso. Growth provides room for intestines to return into torse. Intestines rotate into final position.

26
Q

Large intestine

A

comes from midgut + hindgut.

27
Q

Urorectal septum

A

tissue that divides urinary and digestive system. Grows and separates hind gut.
