What period does the Blastocyst form into an embryo |
The Embryonic period |
|
Induction is when? |
One group of cells acting on another group of cells.
Where the proximity or contrast between cells is enough for induction |
|
Proliferation is what? |
Controlled cellular growth |
|
Interstital growth occurs where |
Internally or within |
|
Appositional Growth occurs by what? |
Layers opposite to interstitial |
|
Growth can be disproportionate within a structure and is not always uniform like the growth of a balloon as described in our text.
TRUE OR FALSE |
TRUE |
|
Differentiation is action that what? |
Changes identical cells to unique cells
|
|
Ctyodifferentiation equals what? |
Creation of different cell types |
|
Histodifferetiation equals what? |
Creation of different tissue types |
|
Morphodifferentiation equals what? |
Creation of different structures |
|
Maturation beings in what phase and continues in the what stage? |
Begins in Embryological phases
Continues in Festal phases |
|
Maturation is what? |
The Attainment of complete form, function, and size |
|
In week two of the prenatal development the blastocyst is what? |
Profilerates, differentiates, and morphogenesis |
|
Embryonic Cell layers in the second week |
are created (germ layers) |
|
When is the bilaminar Embryonic disk formed? |
In the second week of the prenatal development |
|
How does the bilaminar embryonic disk appear? |
As a collection of cells that are between the yolk sac and amniotic cavity |
|
The bilaminar disk becomes the what? |
Embryo |
|
Hypoblast layer is what layer inferior or superior and made of what cells? |
Inferior and small cuboidal cells |
|
Epiblast layer is what layer inferior or superior and made of what cells |
Superior layer and high columnar cells |
|
Amniotic Cavity is on what layer side? and is it Inferior or superior |
The Epiblast layer side/ Superior and appears smaller |
|
