(54 cards)
the word __________ means kidney’s, or a part of it.
Nephron
Kidneys are derived from __________________.
INTERMEDIATE MESODERM
Kidney starts out as a __________ STRUCTURE.
SEGMENTAL
Bladder, as part of the embryonic ___________ derived from __________.
1 ) gut tube lining 2) endoderm
kidney’s are for _________ NOT __________.
1 ) EXCRETION (urine removal from the body) 2) ELIMINATION (Defecation, removal of solid waste)
There is a segment of intermediate mesoderm for every _____________.
body segment
The Earliest kidney appears in the cervical region of the body! (About week 3.) is called the ____________.
PRONEPHROS
we have Kidney segments from our cervical to _________ region that we use all the time.
sacral
Pronephros Develop very close to the_______. (They battle it out for the nearby ducts)
gonads
Pronephros Has NO_________________.
EXCRETORY FUNCTION
THE PRONEPHROS Functions to INDUCE DEVELOPMENT of middle segments of intermediate meosderm called ____________
MESONEPHROS
the duct that attaches to the mesonephros is called the ______________ is very important in INDUCING DEVELOPMENT OF THE CAUDAL KIDNEY SEGMENTS called ____________
1) MESONEPHRIC DUCT 2)METANEPHROS
The Mesonephric Duct is derived from ____________, it also heads towards the _________.
1) Mesoderm 2)bladder
METANEPHROS becomes the
Kidney that functions in us after birth
Pronephros is the kidney that starts in our neck, it induces (cause it to rise) the middle region known as ______________ which induces the back region known as ___________.
1) Mesonephros 2)Metanephros
Induction is very important in _____________ process.
developmental
__________________ reaches all the way to end of gut tube (cloaca).
Mesonephric Duct
The mesonephric Duct connects to the ___________ and it is needed to induce the __________.
1 )Bladder 2)Ureter (but it does not become the ureter)
A new tube grows from the ___________ to the ___________ ureter.
1) Bladder 2)Metanephros
The mesonephric Duct becomes the sperm duct in men known as _______________
Ductus or vas deferens
the __________ is the exit from the bladder
Urethra
After the ________________ attaches to cloaca, the embryonic URETER grows from ______________ to attach to mass of metanephric kidney.
1) mesonephric duct 2)caudal to cranial
Allantois is a big sac that leads to the belly button out of the ______________
umbilical tube
“The fetus starts metabolizing right away” what does that mean?
fetus starts making cellular waste that gets passed down to the mother thru the placenta.
