Q

Cytoplasm divides (cytokinesis); cell membrane divides; chromosomes become invisible and the nuclear membrane reappears.

18
Q

Has two diploid cells having haploid number of chromosomes

19
Q

Group of cells, in the form of epithelium or mesenchyme that give rise to all tissue and body organs?

20
Q

Three primary germ layers?

A

Ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm

21
Q

Organized cells closely joined together at their lateral surfaces and having distinct apical and basal surfaces

22
Q

Epithelium is composed of _______ & ________ of cells

A

Single layer (simple epithelium) & several layers (stratified epithelium)

23
Q

Epithelium may differentiate into a?

24
Q

Group of loosely and irregularly arranged embryonic stellate cells separated by an extensive extracellular cells.

25
Q

Three facts about a mesenchyme?

A

Present in the embryo.
May differentiate into a epithelium.
Differentiate into adult structure as the embryo grows.

26
Tissue that connects and support other tissues of the body?
Connective tissue
27
All develop in sequential manner from a fertilized?
Ovum
28
Characteristics common to all vertebrate embryos
All develop in sequential manner from a fertilized ovum. All share similar structures. All pass through a common stage of development during which they present similar anatomical features.
29
Removal of proteins that cover the sperm also increases sperm motility.
Sperm capacitation
30
Lytic enzymes released by acrosome
Hyaluronidase and acrosin or zona lysin
31
Lytic enzymes that targets corona radiata
Hyaluronidase
32
Lytic enzyme: zona pellucida
Acrosin or zona lysin
33
Developmental disturbance that involves several organs and causes great distortion of the individual
Monstrosity
38
Study of embryogenesis
Embryology
