Development Flashcards
1
Q
what is neuralation?
A
Embryonic process where neural plate rises to form neural folds. These then fold to form neural tube. This becomes the base of the CNS (brain and spinal cord)
2
Q
What is neurogenesis?
A
Cell cycle which produce neurons progenitor cells around neural tube form neurons
3
Q
What is proliferation?
A
rapid cell division.
4
Q
what happens in neural migration?
A
axonal growth - smaller axons develop in neurons.
