24
Q

bulbus cordis develops into the….

A

R ventricle and the outflow tract of both ventricles

(primitive ventricle forms the L ventricle)

25
Q

trucus arteriosus develops into the…..

A

aorta and pulmonary trunk

26
Q

What is septation of the heart?

A

endocardial cushion develops into the atrioventricular region to divide the heart (atria->ventricle)

27
Q

What is atrial septation?

A

formation of 2 septa and 3 holes that separate L and R atria

the 2 septa are called septum primum and septum secundum

28
Q

Atrial septation involves the formation of 2 septa and 3 holes. What are the 2 septa called?

A

1) septum primum
2) septum secundum

29
Q

___________________ forms and extends down towards the fused endocardial cushions to split the atrium into 2 atria. It has holes called the ostium primum and ostium secundum

A

Septum primum

30
Q

______________________ has a hole called the foramen ovale (allows blood to go L-R and skip pulmonary circuit since lungs aren’t developed yet). The presence of both the ostium secundum (from septum primum) and foramen ovale allows a right to left shunt to be present in the developing heart

A

Septum secundum

31
Q

The ventricular septation separates the ventricles into L and R. The ____________________ of the ventricles has 2 components: one muscular and one membranous. Endocardial cushions also appear within the truncus arteriosus which grow towards each other and form a spiral septum, dividing the outflow tract into L and R sides

A

interventricular septum

32
Q

In the fetal circulation, _______________ are required to bypass the liver and nonfunctioning lungs

A

vascular shunts

33
Q

To bypass lungs: 2 shunts, firstly the ___________________ between the 2 atria, which is responsible for bypassing the majority of the circulation. Any blood that does not pass through the foramen ovale enters the pulmonary trunk, which is linked to the distal arch of the aorta by the _____________________ (connects to the aorta which goes out to the body)

A

foramen ovale, ductus arteriosus

34
Q

To bypass liver: the _________________ shunts a portion of umbilical vein blood flow directly to the IVC. Thus, it allows oxygenated blood from the placenta to bypass the liver.

A

ductus venous

35
Q

At birth, circulatory shunts need to close to allow….

A

the normal adult circulation to be established with foramen ovale and ductus arteriosus

increased pressure in the atrium closes the foramen ovale into a fossa

muscular wall of heart contracts to close the ductus arteriosus after birth

36
Q

After the 3 germ layers form during gastrulation, the body folding forms the endometrial ________ at the cranial end of the embryo, thereby delineating the inner tube of the tube-within a tube body plan

A

endometrial gut tube

46
Q

The gut endoderm forms the lining (epithelium) of the GI tract. The adjacent ______________________ forms the other layers and components of the gut

A

splanchnic mesoderm

47
Q

As body folding is completed, there remains a thin layer of splanchnic mesoderm called the ____________________, connecting the gut tube along its entire axial length to the dorsal portion of the abdominal body wall.

A

dorsal mesentery

48
Q

By the 5th week, the thoracic and abdominal portion of the ___________ is visibly divided into the pharynx, esophagus, stomach, and proximal duodenum.
