Cards

Term
When does the face begin to form, and when is it completed?
Definition
4th week - 12th week
Term
What layers of the embryo are involved in facial development?
Definition
Ectoderm, Mesoderm, Endoderm
Term
Describe facial fusion
Definition
fusion of swellingsor tissues on the same surface of an embryo. Cleft groove seperates but is taken over by messenchyme and a smooth surface is created.
Term
What is oral epithelium and to what does it give rise to?
Definition
Lines the oral cavity derived from ectoderm and gives rise to teeth
Term

Oropharyngeal membrane

seperates what?

Definition
consists of ectoderm and endoderm. Seperates stomodeum from primitive pharynx.
Term
What is the term for primitive mouth? What is its lining?
Definition
Stomodeum, Oral Epithelium
Term
What is Primitive Pharynx?
Definition
cranial portion of the foregut, the begining of future digestive tract
Term
What are the mandibular processes and how do they form portions of the lower face?
Definition
core of messenchyme (formed in part by neural crest cells), outer ectoderm and endoderm inside. Paired mandibular processes fuse at midline to form mandibular arch
Term
What is the first branchial arch and meckels cartilage?
Definition
Mandibular arch,the cartilage that forms on each side of the arch is meckels cartilage and is removed over time.
Term
What is the frontonasal process and to what portion of the face does it give rise to?
Definition
buldge of tissue in upper facial area at cephalic end of embryo cranial boundry of stomodeum. Upper face, forhead, bridge of nose, primary palate, nasal septum
Term
Define Placodes, and describe the location of the lens, otic and nasl placodes
Definition
Rounded areas of specialized, thickened ectoderm. 1. side of the frontonasal process - future eyes 2. Laterally posterior - forms middle ear. 3. superior to stomodeum - olfactory cells for smell.
Term
Describe the further development of the nasal placodes and there relationship to the oronasal membrane.
Definition
form a depression in the center of each placode, nasal pits form which later develop into nostrils. nasal sacs develop and internally and are seperated from stomodeum by oronasal membrane. Oronasal membrane will go away leaving nasal and oral cavity in communication 
Term
Describe the medial and lateral nasal processes on an embryo
Definition
middle portion and lateral portion between the nasal pits. Will form middle of nose from root to apex.
Term
What is the intermaxillary segment? To what does it give rise to?
Definition
medial nasal process that gre inferiorly. gives rise to maxillary incisor teeth, primary palate, nasal septum
Term
What happens to mandibular arch during fourth week. To what does this new process give rise to?
Definition
adjacent swelling from mandibular process grows out and becomes the maxillary process. Maxillary process forms future midface upper lip, cheeks, secondary palate
Term
Describe the embryological development of the upper lip.
Definition
4th week. each maxillary process fuses with each medial nasal process as a result of underlying messenchyme.
Term
What occurs wit failure of fusion during the development of the upper lip and what is its ramifications orally?
Definition
Cleft Lip. Failure of messenchyme to grow beneathe the ectoderm. Speech development, appearance, oronasal infection.
Term
How does primitive pharynx develop?
Definition
the beginings of the embryos hollow tube are derived from the anterior portion of the foregut.
Term
What is the brachial apparatus?
Definition
consists of branchial arches, branchial grooves and membranes, and pharyngeal pouches.
Term
Name Arch and what it gives rise to.
Definition

Mandibular arch - 1st - messenchyme (neural crest and ectoderm/endoderm)Meckels cartilage - Lower face, mandible.

Hyoid Arch - 2nd - reicherts cartilage - middle ear, temporal bone, hyoid bone - 7th cranial nerve

3rd - formation of portions of hyoid and 4th brachial arches - Tongue. 4th and 6th arch - laryngeal cartilages - muscles of larynx and pharynx. 9-10th cranial nerve

 

 

Term
what is a branchial arch?
Definition
u shaped bar with messenchyme core formed by neural crest cells that migrate to the neck region.
Term
What are branchial grooves?
Definition
external grooves noted on each side of the embryo. 1st groove forms external auditory meatus. It is eventually obliterated leaving smooth neck contour.
Term
Name the tissues associated with the pharyngeal pouches?
Definition

1st pouch - tympanic membrane, tympanic cavity, auditory tube, mastoid antrum

2nd pouch - crypts and lymphatic nodules of the palatine tonsils

3rd and 4th - Parathyroid and thymus glands

Term
What are cervical cysts? and how can they be present?
Definition
Left over branchial grooves that did not disappear. can remain free in neck or inferior to mandible along sternocleidomastoid muscle. Produce slowly enlarging painless swelling.
