Term
In the blastula stage, how many layers does the embryonic disc have and what are they?
Definition
2: epiblast and hypoblast
Term
embryonic sacs and their layers
Definition
amniotic: epiblast (with primitive streak)

yolk: hypoblast
Term
Gastrulation
Definition
epiblast cells go through primitive streak to form ectoderm (top), endoderm (bottom) and mesoderm (middle)
Term
in the gastrula, which section induces nervous system development?
Definition
midline mesoderm factors on ectoderm above
Term
what layer does the neural plate form from?
Definition
ectoderm
Term
neurulation
Definition
neural tube develops from neural plate; neural plate wraps around and fuzes in center, then zips in both directions. above the connection, the neural crest forms
Term
incomplete closure of neural tube leads to ________
Definition
spina bifida (spine, usually ok), anencephaly (brain area, lethal)
Term
rostral early neural tube swellings
Definition
brain vesicles: prosencephalon, mesencephalon, rhombencephalon
Term
Flexures
Definition
allow us to stand upright (dorsal/ventral)
Term
second two structure types formed
Definition
optic cups and secondary brain vesicles: telen (forebrain), dien (limbic), meten (pons, cerebellum), (pontine flexure), and myelencephalon (medulla)
Term
optic vesicles become ____
Definition
neural retina and pigment epithelium
Term

Term
the entire nervous system develops from _____
Definition
the neural plate
Term
describe the pattern of growth for the telencephalon
Definition
"ram's horn": posterior, then overlaps to anterior, covering the insula, this pattern is clear throughout the brain
Term
What does the neural tube become?
Definition
this lumen becomes the ventricular system
Term
Where does the neural crest come from?
Definition
the outer border of the neural plate, which becomes a tube, connecting the neural crest cells together
Term
After neural crest cells connect opposite neural groove, what do they do?
Definition
form neural crest above the neural tube on the dorsal side, then migrate to develop most of the cells of the peripheral nervous system, and some others
Term
Neural crest derivatives
Definition
neurons (sensory, DRG, sympathetic, parasympathetic)
glia (schwann, satellite)
neurosecretory (thyroid C, adrenal medulla)
melanocytes
skeletal and connective tissue of head and face
muscles (eye, cranial blood vessels and dermis)
mesenchyme of thyroid, parathyroid, and salivary
Term
neural placodes can give rise to ____
Definition
cranial nerve sensory ganglia
