Q

How does gastrulation occur

A

Primitive streak forms in the epiblast, leading to migration and invagination of epiblast cells

Why does gastrulation occur

A

To ensure the correct placement and precursor tissue to allow subsequent morphogenesis to take place

Q

teratogenesis Effects which stage of development the most and why

A

Pre-embryonic - lethal effects
embryonic - the most sensitive - As this period where systems were developed
fetal - less sensitive - period about growth and function maturation of systems

Q

Howard left and right asymmetry produced

A

Ciliated cells at the node result in leftward flow of signal molecules. Site-specific signalling cascade initiated. Absence of signal results in right sidedness

Q

Notochord in neurulation leads to

A

Solid model cells running down the midline. Send signal to overlying ectoderm to differentiate into neur ectoderm.Electrical signal causes overlying ectoderm to thicken. Slip a shape neural plate Edges elevate out of the pain of the disc and card towards each other creating the neural tube

Q

Somites broken down to form

A

Sclerotome - eventually form bone

22
Q

Folding in the head to foot plane is called

A

cephalocaudal Folding

23
Q

What is folding achieve

A

Draws together the margins of the disc
creating a ventricle body wall
pulling amniotic membrane around the disk
Embryo becomes suspended within the amniotic sac
pulling connected stalk ventrally

Fording allows everything to be put in my place

24
Q

Three stages from fertilisation to birth

A

The embryonic 1-2 weeks
embryonic 3-8 weeks
fetal 9-38 weeks
These are weeks post fertilisation

25
Gestation age
Time since last menastration. Embryonic age +2 weeks
26
Three stages of pre-embryonic period
Cleavage compaction implantation
27
What is cleavage
Forms morula
28
What is Compaction
Forms blastocyst
29
Ideal location for fertilisation to occur
Anterior posterior ampulla of fallopian tube
30
What you call a fertilised oocyte
Zygote
31
Explain cleavage
``` Cleavage forms morula series of mitotic divisions begins 30 hours after fertilisation results into blastomeres of equal size zone of lucida glycoprotein shell ensures only one sperm fertilised egg ```
32
During cleavage the cells can be described as
totipotent - Has the capacity to become any cell type
33
What embryonic stage can create implantation genetic diagnosis account
morula In cleavage
34
Explain compaction
Formation of first cavity full blastocyst inner cell mass - embryoblast Outer cell mass - Trophoblast
35
Cells in compaction can be described as
Pluripotent the capacity to become one of many cell types
36
What needs to occur before implantation can occur
Hatching, blastocyst hatches from zone pullucida | can now interact with uterine surface to implement
37
How many cells does the conceptus have during implantation
Hundred, eight in Embryoblast and 92 trophoblast
38
What happens in the week twos
Two distinct sailors emerge from the outer cell mass trophoblast x syncytiotrophoblast x cytotrophoblast inner cell mass embryoblast becomes bilaminar disk x Epiblast x Hypoblast
39
Bilaminar disc
Epiblast and hypoblast
40
What region of the uterus does implantation occur
Implantation is interstitial, uterine epithelium is breached and the conceptus implants within the uterine stroma
41
Why does implantation occur
To establish maternal blood flow in the centre
42
Basic structural units of materno-fetal exchange
Chorionic illness
43
Conditions linked implantation defects
Ectopic pregnancies | centre Praevia
44
abembryonic pole
Primitive yolk sac formed
45
Embryonic pole
Rapid development of syncytitrophoblast
46
which later is the yolk sac membrane in contact with
cytotrophoblast
47
Primitive yolk sac membrane is pushed away from cytotrophoblast by
And a acelluar extra embryonic reticulm
48
Which layer interacts with the maternal blood vessels
syncytiotrophoblast - Indeed maternal sinusoids
49
What is the secondary yolk sack made from
The primitive yolk sac
50
What Suspends embryo
Connecting Stalk
51
What is the amniotic sac formed from
From from spaces within the epic last
