yolk
provides nutrients and potential energy to the developing embryo
development
includes the sequence of changes through which the organism passes during its entire life span
why is early embryonic development important?
it is when the pattern of organism originates
cleavage
series of rapid mitotic divisions undergone by the zygote
zygote
fertilized egg
blastulation
formation of a mass of cells containing a central cavity
gastrulation
characterized by the movement of groups of cell that results in the formation of the rudimentary digestive tract
cells organize into these 3 germ layers
ectroderm, mesoderm and endoderm which will form the skin, nervous system, muscles, bones, digestive tract, etc.
unfertilized egg
a conspicuous nucleus with a nucleolus is visible
blastomeres
two cells that are produced by the first mitotic division that occurs through the poles
vegetal poles
end of egg where most yolk is concentrated
animal pole
end of egg where the least yolk is concentrated
blastula
continued divisions form this hollow ball of cells
blastocoel
fluid-filled cavity of the blastula
gastrula
after the development of the blastula, cells on one side of the blastula fold inward to form a two-layered......
archenteron
inaginated part of the gastrula
blastopore
opening to the outside at the end of the archenteron
ectoderm
outer part of cells of the archenteron
endoderm
inner layer of cells to the archenteron
Cleavage results in..
the formation of the blastula
yolk plug
yellow spot found in the embryo of a frog egg. it is the blastopore where cells are invaginating but is pluggged by yolk cells that don't invaginate
frog development: gastrula
migration of cells from the outer surface has resulted in a 3-layered embryo
frog development: neural folds
two strips of ectoderm grow upward to form ___. forming a neural groove
frog development: neural tube
the edges of folds eventually meet and fuse along a midline in later stages. formed uner skin of embryo
frog development: notochord
induces formation of the nervous system
chicken development: yolk
egg proper that's enclosed in a delicate vitelline membrane
chicken development:albumen
egg white that surrounds the yolk
chicken development: chalaza
twisted fibrous strands of albumen
chicken development:blastodisc
living part of the egg. a small white dot
chicken development: cleavage produces a...
blastoderm
33 hour chick incubation
most outstanding feature is folding of tissues at the anterior end to form 3 major aread of the brain, forebrain, midbrain and hindbrain
chicken development: optic vesicles
become the eyes of the chick
chicken development:neural tube
contains the spinal cord.
chicken development:primitive streak
region of the embryo through which cells move into the interior during gastrulation
chicken development: somites
develop into the skeleton and skeletal muscles
