Urinary System and Suprarenal Gland Flashcards
From what elevations are the urinary and genital systems originally derived
longitudinal urogenital ridges of intermediate mesoderm
What part of the urogenital ridge gives rise to the urinary system
nephrogenic cord
Which systerm development begins first Urinary or genital (what week)
Urinary begins first
early week 4
What are the 3 sets of kidneys humans develop and in what order
pronephros
mesonephros
Metanephros
In that order and craniocaudally
What does the pronephros consist of and where is it located
nonfunctional epithelial cell clusters and tubular structures
in the cervical region
When does the pronephros desintegrate
durning 4th week
What do the pronephric cell clusters attach to
pronephric duct
Which part of the pronephric kidneys persist to be used later
Pronephric duct
Which kidney is the developmental homologue to the type of kidney found in some fish and amphibians
Mesonephros
Which kidney is the developmental homologue to the type of kidney found in primitive vertebrates
Pronephros
When and where does the mesonephros develop
late 4th to 5th week
in a caniocaudal sequence in thoracolumbar region
When is the first development of urine and by which kidney
3rd month
mesonephric kidneys
what is formed from the medial end of the mesonephric tubule
Cup shaped sac
Bowmans capsule
What invaginates bowmans capsule and where does it connect
knot of cappillaries ( glomerulus)
attach by artieries to aorta
What composes a renal corpuscle
Bowmans capsule
Glomerulus
What connects all mesonephric tubules and on which end of the tubule
Mesonephric duct
laterally
What is the mesonephric duct a continuation of
Pronephric duct
what does the mesonephric duct open into
cloaca
When does the metanephric kidney develop
5th week
What is the first appearance of the metanephric kidney
Metanephric diverticulum ( uteric bud)
what is the Metanephric diverticulum an outgrowth of
Mesonephric duct
What does the Metanephric diverticulum grow into
Metanephrogenic blastema
What is the Metanephrogenic blastema composed of
condensation of the caudal part of intermediate mesoderm
As the Metanephric diverticulum penetrates the Metanephrogenic blastema what does it do
expands to form ureter and undergoes divisions to form branching up to and including arched collecting tubles
What is the last level of branching done by the Metanephric diverticulum in the Metanephrogenic blastema
arched collecting tubules
