The first 2 weeks of gestation is called…
Pre-Embryonic Stage
Weeks 3-8 of gestation is called…
Embryo
Week 9 until birth of gestation is called…
Fetus “all organ systems are structured but not fully developed”
What are the 8 stages of fertilization?
- Unfertilized Oocyte
- Fertilized Oocyte
- Two Cell stage
- Four cell stage
- Eight cell stage, Morula
- Blastocyst
- Embryo Hatches (embryoblast)
- Blastocyst rotates and implants into endometrium of the uterus
What is ectopic pregnancy?
What would be signs and symptoms?
occurs when a fertilized egg implants and grows outside the main cavity of the uterus
pelvic pain
Describe the process of gastrulation
In the 3rd week of embryonic development, epiblast and hypoblast cells undergo a highly differentialized process. During this process, the two cell layers become 3 germ layers and the bodily axes observed in the mature adult are created.
What are the 3 germ layers?
- Ectoderm
- Endoderm
- Mesoderm
Why is the endoderm important?
- Epithelial lining of digestive and respiratory tract
- lining of urethra, bladder and reproductive system
- liver and pancreas
- refers pain
Why is the mesoderm important?
- Notochord (vertebrates)
- Musculoskeletal system
- Muscular layer of stomach, intestine
- Circulatory system
Why is the ectoderm important?
- Nervous system
- Epidermis of Skin
- Cornea and lens of eye
What are the features of a vertebrae?
Vertebral body, vertebral foramen, spinous process, transverse process, pedicle, lamina
What is the difference between axial and appendicular?
Axial is attached to the spine (thoracic cage, skull, vertebral column)
Appendicular is attached to the appendages (humerus, pelvis)
What do you think causes the spinal curves to form?
Initially, “C Shape” spine in babies. As child begins to stand walk, the muscles start attaching to the spine causing the curve.
Kyphosis vs. Lordosis Curves
Kyphosis is when spine curves more outwards
Lordosis is when the spine curves more inwards
What is the vertebral arch?
“Coffee Mug” everything but the body and foramen
What joint connects to C1 (atlas)?
Atlanto-occipital joint (OA Joint)
What joint connects to C2 (axis)?
Atlantoaxial joint (AA joint)
