(113 cards)
What germ layers form during gastrulation?
All of them
What germ layer is involved in neurulation
Ectoderm
What germ layer is involved in notochord formation?
Mesoderm
What is the body plan?
Tube within a tube body plan (ectoderm within a endoderm tube)
Neurulation converts the neural plate into a hollow neural tube covered by ___________
Surface ectoderm
The neural tube differentiates into ______________
Brain and spinal cord
What major regions of the brain become apparent before the 4th week?
Forebrain (prosencephalon)
Midbrain (mesencephalon)
Hindbrain (rhombencephalon)
Neurons and glia begin to differentiate from the ____________ of the neural tube
Neuroepithelium
As neurulation occurs, ____________________ detach from the lateral lips of the neural folds and migrate to numerous locations in the body, where they differentiate to form a wide range of structures and cell types
Neural crest cells
2 types of ectoderm
- neural ectoderm
- surface ectoderm
Neural crest cells from the mesencephalon and rhombencephalon regions also give rise to structures in the developing ____________________________
Pharyngeal arches of the head and neck
What structures form from the pharyngeal arches
Bones of the nose, face, middle ear, and neck
Mesencephalon and rhombencephalon neural crest cells form the ______________________________
Dermis, smooth muscle, and fat of the face and ventral neck
Neural crest cells arising from the caudalmost rhombencephalon contribute, along with vagal neural crest cells, to the
Parafollicular cells of the thyroid
Where do neural crest cells migrate out of?
The leading edge of the neural tube
The rhombencephalon neural crest cells also contribute to some of the ________________ ganglia
Cranial nerve ganglia
- specifically neuron and all glial cells in the sensory ganglia of cranial nerves V, VII, IX, and X
- you can tell where the CN come from based on where they emerge in the head
Group of cells that migrate to the same area for a similar function
Placode
CN I arises from the ______________
Olfactory placode
CN II arises from the ________________
Optic cup (the distal end which thickens as the placode-like rudiment of the neural retina)
CN VIII and the vestibulocochlear ganglion arise from the __________
Otic placode
The ________________ gives rise to the cranial component of the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system
Rhombencephalic neural crest cells
-specifically POST GANGLIONIC neurons
The entire cranial component of the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system is formed from ______________
Cranial neural crest cells
What germ layer comprises the pia ad arachnoid mater?
Ectoderm
What germ layer comprises the dura mater
Mesoderm
