What two types of cells does the trophoblast split into?
Cytotrophoblast
Syncytiotrophoblast
What does the Embryoblast split into?
Hypoblast
Epiblast
What type of cell hides the bilaminar disc from the mothers immune system?
Syncytiotrophoblast secretes factors
What blast forms the dorsal and ventral surfaces of the embryo?
Epiblast - Dorsal
Hypoblast - Ventral
Where does the amniotic cavity sac start from?
Centre of Epiblast
What day post implantation does the hypoblast cells encase the blastocyte cavity?
9 days post implantation
What forms to seal the blastocyte within the site of implantation
Coagulation Plug
What two areas does the blastocyte receive nutrients
Mammillary Gland via diffusion

At what day does the syncytiotrophoblast break down the mammillary capillaries?
What does this establish?
10-11 days
