82
Q

What does the stellate reticulum do in the bell stage

A
  1. syntesize and secrete GAGs
  2. Draws in water
  3. desmosomal contacts are forced apart and become star shaped

A

the stratum intermediate (SI)

84
Q

what kind of junctions are in the stratum intermediate

A

gap junctions

85
Q

what do the SI cells do

A

they have high alkaline phosphatase activity and they transport phosphate from blood vessles near the SI into the enamel organ

86
Q

What two layers work synergistically for the formation of enamel

A

the IEE and the SI

87
Q

What is the IEE

A

the group of short columnar cells facing the dental papilla

88
Q

What does the basal lamina become

is glycogen in high or low concentrations in the IEE

A

High

90
Q

What do the IEE cells become

A

they become ameloblasts

91
Q

Where is the OEE

A

the outer edge of the enamel organ

92
Q

What happens to the OEE is the bell stage
