Dermis - from mesoderm (somites)
Term
Neural Tube Forms...?
Definition
Brain and Spinal Cord
Term
3 different Embryonic Periods
Definition
1- Proliferative Period (0-2 wks) -large increase in # of cells

2-Embryonic (2-8 wks) cells dvlp into structures & places -form organs

3. Fetal Period (8wks-9 mnths) furthr dvlpmnt of organs & maturation -functional capabilities
Term
Neural Crest Cells help form...?
Definition
Nervous System in head & neck region AND tissues of face
Term
Differentiations of Somites
Definition
Sclerotome, dermatome, and myotome
Term
Somites contribute to...?
Definition
Dermis & all muscles functioning in peristalsis & outer layer of digestive system
Term
Somites are...
Definition
Developmental areas in mesoderm

-become functional and go to certain areas
Term
Sclerotome
Definition
Differentiates into mesenchymal cells (aka stem cells)

can become: fibroblasts, osteoblasts, chondroblasts

(migrate throughout body)
Term
Dermatome
Definition
(somite)
Forms dermis, subcutaneous tissue & visceral mesoderm
Term
3 types of cartilage
Definition
Elastin-ears and nose

Hyaline-btwn joints

Fibrous-intervertebral discs
Term
Growth of Cartilage
Definition
1-Appositional (growth on surface or edge of cartilage)

2- Interstital (growth btwn chondrocytes)
Term
2 different bone development ways
Definition
1-Endochondrial Bone Dvlpmnt
(bone replaces cartilage) -after cartilage formed osteoblasts lays bone

2-Intramembranous Bone Formation
(directly from connective tissue)
Collagen (CT) mks meshwork wch calcifies into bone *Bones of facial and neurocranium
Term
Epiphyseal LIne
Definition
(during endochondrial bone dvlpmnt)
Cartilaginous discs btwn bone in head and body of long bones
Term
Myoblasts differentiate into...
Definition
(muscle cell) different types of muscle: SMOOTH (digestive tract), CARDIAC, SKELETAL
Term

Term
Vitelline Vascular System
Definition
embryo lives off this for 1st few weeks
--nutrition moves from yolk sac to embryo
