Unit 1 Flashcards
Pre embryonic stage
First two weeks
Embryo
3 to 8 weeks
Fetus
9 weeks to the end of pregnancy
Gastrulation
Third week. Two layers differentiate into ectoderm, endoderm, mesoderm.
Ectoderm
Epidermis, eyes, nervous system
Mesoderm
Notochord, muscular, skeletal system, circulatory system
Endoderm
Lining of organs, liver and pancreas
Dermatomyotomes
Mesoderm differentiate into 44 pairs of somites
Somites
Ventral side: ribs and vertebrae
Dorsal side: dermis and segmental innervation
Myotomes
He used to make skeletal muscle and segmented innervation
Upper limb growth fourth week location
Form from C5 to T1.
Lower limb growth at 7 weeks
Form from L2 to s2. Flexures develop, big toe points upward
Limb development at seven weeks
Limbs rotate 90°, but in opposite directions
Digit abnormalities
Syndactyly: fused
Adactyly: missing
Ectrodactyly: missing middle digits
Limb abnormalities
Amelia: missing, limb
Meromelia: partial absence
Phocomelia: shortened lower extremities
Radial longitudinal deficiency: missing, or malformed radius
Neural tube
Fourth week. mesoderm becomes notochord, ectoderm folds to become epidermidis. Neural plate folds to become neural tube (spinal cord).
Spina bifida
Two sides of vertebrae failed to fuse, due to folic acid deficiency.
Oculta: bump, asymptomatic
Meningocele: contain cerebral spinal fluid
Myelomeningocele: spinal cord
Bony landmarks of the vertebrae
Body,pedicle, transverse process, pars Interarticularis, lamina, spinous process, inferior, facet, superior, facet, vertebral foramen
Ipsilateral
Same side
Contralateral
Opposite side
Supination
Hand: palm up
Foot: lift medially
Adduction and abduction of hand
Spreading of fingers
Lateral and medial adduction and abduction
Movement of middle finger
Thumb abduction and adduction
Some away from palm and back
