69
New cards

Mitosis

Cell division, forms the morula (ball of

cells) (2 → 4 → 8 →16) 16 total once

mitosis is complete and comes a blastocyst, the collection of cells on the inside becomes animal

70
New cards

Blastocyst (blastula)

Hollow ball of cells with blastocele (cavity)

71
New cards

Inner cell mass

Inside of blastocyst that forms embryo, multiplies and

divides into 3 germ layers

72
New cards

Trophoblast

Outside of blastocyst and becomes placenta

73
New cards

Order of fertilization

1st, mitosis in uterine tube/oviduct (2,4,8 cell stage), travels to uterus for morula 16-cell stage and blastocoel, hatches once implantation occurs and sticks to uterus wall

74
New cards

Blastocoel

Cavity in blastocyst

75
New cards

Gastrulation

After blastulation, forms 3 germ layers of inner cell mass (ectoderm, endoderm, mesoderm)

76
New cards

Ectoderm(gastrulation)

Outer layer that forms from epiblasts; Becomes epidermis, hair, hooves, epithelium of sense organs, and nerve tissue (basically surface stuff and nerve tissues)

77
New cards

Endoderm (gastrulation)

Inner layer that forms from hypoblast cells, grows down and forms primitive gut (archenteron), becomes epithelium of gut, respiratory tract, and lower urinary tract (bottom stuff)

78
New cards

Mesoderm (gastrulation)

Middle layer, forms between other two, divided into somatic and splanchnic layers. has coelom; becomes all connective tissue, muscles, and epithelium of gonads and joints

79
New cards

Two layers of mesoderm

Somatic and Splanchnic

80
New cards

Somatic layer

Next to ectoderm; creates bones, ligaments, blood vessels, and connective tissues of the limbs

81
New cards

Splanchnic layer

Next to endoderm; makes heart, gut muscles and blood vessels

82
New cards

Coelom

Cavity forms between somatic and splanchnic in mesoderm, precursor to body cavities

83
New cards

Neurolation

Formation of the spinal chord. Ectoderm dorsal to Notochord (neural plate) thickens and folds into a groove, with both the meeting to form a tube. Thickens at cranial end to become brain, hollow tube filled with CSF(cerebrospinal fluid), spine forms, peripheral nerves grow laterally

84
New cards

CSF

85
New cards

Notochord

Develops from mesoderm to make first rod-like support structure in vertebrates, replace by vertebrae of the spin in later embryo, small remnant as nucleus pulposus inside intervertebral disks

86
New cards

Embryo development

Germ layers form tissues, tissues form organs, organs form organ systems, fetus forms when organs are in place (1st trimester)

87
New cards

Naming of epithelial cells

By number of layers and shape of cell

89
