31
Q

how does the embryo get nuttrient during the first three weeks

A

in the first three weeks it is small enough to survuve via diffusion

32
Q

chorionic villi

A

formed from EEM directed outward toward maternal capillary network
carries fetal blood vessels outward to aid nutrient collection `

33
Q

gastrulation

A

formation of the three germ layers

34
Q

three germ layers

A

ectoderm
mesoderm
endoderm

35
Q

embryonic disk

A

where the epiblast and hypoblast layers are in contact

36
Q

epiblast

A

amniotic cavity side

37
Q

hypoblast

A

yolk sac side

38
Q

feature at the cranial end of the bilaminar disk

A

oropharyngeal membrane

39
Q

feature at the caudal end of the bilaminar disk

A

cloacal membrane

40
Q

primitive streak made up of

A

primitive groove, node and pit

41
Q

primitive groove

A

linear groove

42
Q

primitive node

A

head of primitive streak

43
Q

primitive pit

A

indent in the centre of the primitive node

44
Q

embryonic mechanisms

A
  1. proliferate
  2. differentiate
  3. migrate
  4. induction
  5. combination
45
Q

proliferate

A

grow in cell number

46
Q

differentiate

A

alter developmental trajectory

47
Q

migration

A

cells move from one area to another

48
Q

induction

A

cause other cells or neighbouring cells to differentiate

49
Q

combination

A

whole organs are formed from different germ layers

50
Q

overexpression of cerberus protein causes

A

ectopic heads

51
Q

liver is made up of

A

mostly endodermal (biliary and hepatocytes)
blood supply and some CT from mesoderm
nerves from ectoderm

52
Q

epiblast migration

A

2 migrations of epiblast cells form the 3 germ layers

53
Q

migration occurs at

A

the primitive groove

54
Q

the first migration occurs during

A

days 14-15

55
Q

the first migration involves

A

piblast cells migrate and differentiate into endodermal cells
§ Displaces hypoblast from embryonic disk
□ Hence why hypoblast is extraembryonic

56
Q

second migration occurs during

A

day 16

57
Q

second migration involves

A
  • Epiblast cells migrate and differentiate into mesodermal cells
    - Remaining surface epiblast differentiates into ectoderm
    § Mesoderm separates ectoderm from endoderm
    □ Except for the oral and cloacal membranes
    ® Direct contact between them with no mesoderm
58
Q

remaining surface epiblast differentiaties into

A

endoderm

59
Q

direct contact between endoderm and ectoderm occurs at

A

oral and cloacal membranes

60
Q

mesoderm proliferates, differentiates and migrates forming

A

66
Q

what is nueralation

A

neural tube formation

67
Q

nueral tube formation
