(126 cards)
During which stage of human development do the germ layers mature and differentiate into specific tissues?
embryonic period
A ____ is formed by the mitotic cleavage of the zygote.
blastomere
A ____ is a group of more than 32 blastomeres.
morula
Which structure of the proliferation period contains a cavity lined with cells?
blastocyst
A ____ is the 64-cell stage morula once it develops an internal blastocystic cavity.
blastocyst
A ____ is the name for a blastocyst once it develops an inner cell mass around day 6-7.
embryoblast
When does implantation of the embryoblast into the uterine wall occur?
day 4-10
The outer cell mass becomes the ____; the inner cell mass becomes the _____.
cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast layers; bilaminar embryonic disc
Does the cytotrophoblast or syncytiotrophoblast “finger” into the uterine wall?
syncytiotrophoblast
Which layers are precursors to the placenta?
the outer cell mass that becomes the cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast layers
What are the two layers of the bilaminar embryonic disc?
epiblast
hypoblast
The ____ of the bilaminar embryonic disc forms the ectoderm and then eventually the mesoderm.
epiblast
The ____ of the bilaminar embryonic disc forms the endoderm layer.
hypoblast
What membrane is formed by the enlargement of the amniotic cavity and migration of cells from the hypoblast?
Heuser’s membrane
What structure forms the internal lining of the blastocyst cavity to form the embryonic yolk sac?
Heuser’s membrane
What are the 3 cell layers and 3 embryonic cavities formed and present after complete implantation into the endothelial lining?
epiblast
embryonic mesoderm
hypoblast
amniotic cavity
yolk sac
chorionic cavity
Where is the embryonic mesoderm located?
between the amniotic cavity and yolk sac
Which embryonic cavity surrounds the entire structure/embryo in the uterine wall?
chorionic cavity
During the 3rd week of development, the bilaminar disc is characterized by the formation of the _____.
primitive streak
What structure starts to form from the cells of the epiblast layer migrating and invaginating to form the mesodermal layer?
primitive streak
The primitive node turns into the _____, which turns into the _____.
notochordal process; notochord
The notochord is formed from _____ cells derived from the primitive node.
ectodermal
What blocks further progression of pre-notochordal cells? What is the “road block?”
prechordal plate
Prenotochordal cells invaginate and migrate towards the ____ until they reach the prechordal plate.
cephalad
