What factors does fertilization stimulate? |
It sets up blocks to the entry of additional sperm, it stimulates ion fluxes across the egg membrane, it changes the eggs pH, and increases metabolism and stimulates protein synthesis, it initiates the rapid series of cell division that produces a multicellular embryo |
|
Describe the process of gastrulation. |
Gastrulation is the process whereby the blastula is transformed by Massive movements of cells into an embryo with multiple tissue layers and distinct body axes the resulting spatial relationship between tissues make possible the inductive interactions between cells that trigger differentiation and organ formation |
|
Vegetal hemisphere |
Rearrangement of egg cytoplasm following fertilization is easily observed in some frog species because of the pigments in the cytoplasm the nutrients in an unfertilized frog a garden slug granules that are concentrated by gravity in the lower half of the egg called the vegetale hemisphere |
|
Animal hemisphere |
The haploid nucleus of the egg is located at the opposite end in the animal hemisphere the outermost cytoplasm of the animal hemisphere is heavily pigmented and the underlying cytoplasm has more diffuse pigmentation de vegetal hemisphere is not pigmented because of these differences it is easily to observe how the cytoplasm is rearranged when a frog egg is fertilized |
|
Gray Crescent |
This rotation brings different regions of cytoplasm into contact with each other on opposite sides of the egg, producing a band of diffusion payment and cytoplasm on the side opposite the site of sperm entry this band called The Great Crescent marks the location of important developmental events and some species of amphibians |
|
Cleavage |
Transformation of the diploid zygote into a mass of cells occurs through a rapid series of cell divisions called cleavage |
|
Blastocoel |
The embryo becomes a solid ball of smaller and smaller cells eventually this ball forms a certain fluid-filled cavity called a blastocoel. |
|
Blastula |
After the ball of central fluid-filled cavity is formed the embryo is known as this |
|
Blastomeres |
The embryos individual cells are called blastomeres |
|
Complete cleavage |
Occurs in most eggs that have little yolk in this pattern early cleavage first divide the egg completely in the blast of murders are of similar size the frog egg undergoes complete cleavage but because it is vegetable contains more yolk the division of the cytoplasm is unequal and the blasphemers and in the animal and Missy are smaller than those in the vegetal hemisphere |
|
Incomplete cleavage |
This occurs in many species in which the egg contains a lot of yoke in the cleavage bras do not penetrate it at all |
|
Dicoidal cleavage |
Type of incomplete cleavage common and Fishes reptiles and birds the eggs of which contain a dense yolk mask the embryo forms as a disc of cells called a blastodisc that sits on top of the yolk mask |
|
Superficial cleavage |
Is a variation of incomplete cleavage that occurs in insects such as the fruit fly early in development cycles of mitosis occur without cell division producing a syncytium a single cell with many nuclei |
|
Radial cleavage |
An incomplete cleavage if the mitotic spindles of successive cell divisions from parallel or perpendicular to the animal vegetal axis of the zygote a pattern of radial cleavage occurs as seen in the Frog the first two cell divisions are parallel to the animal vegetal axis and the third is perpendicular to it |
|
Spiral cleavage |
Results with them mitotic spindles are at oblique angles to the animal vegetal axis and spiral cleavage each new cell layer is shifted to the left or right depending on the orientation of the mitotic spindles |
|
Implantation |
When the blastocyst arrives in the uterus the trip a blast at here's to the lining of the uterus beginning the process of implantation |
|
Fate maps |
In many animals these movements of the blastomeres are so regular and Wilcrest rated that it is possible to label a specific glass mirror with a guy and identify the tissue and organs that form from its progeny such labeling experiments produced a fate map |
|
Determined |
Elastomers become determined committed to specific dates at different times and different species |
|
Mosaic development |
If one of these blasphemers as experimental removed a particular portion of the embryo will not form this type of development has been called Mosaic development because each blastomere seems to be contribute a specific set of tiles to the final Mosaic that is the adult animal |
|
Regulate of development |
In contrast to Mosaic development the loss of some cells during cleavage is regulated development this does not affect the developing embryo because the remaining cells compensate for the loss regulate of development is typical of many vertebrates species including humans |
|
Germ layers |
During gastrulation three germ layers also called cell layers of tissue layers form |
|
Endoderm |
The endoderm is the innermost germ layer created as some blasphemers move to the inside of the embryo the endoderm gives rise to the lining of the digestive tract respiratory tract pancreas and liver |
|
Ectoderm |
The ectoderm is the outer germ layer formed from those cells remaining on the outside of the embryo the ectoderm gives rise to the nervous system include the eyes and ears and to the epidermal layer of the skin and structures derived from the skin such as hair feathers nails or claws sweat glands old ones and even teeth |
|
Mesoderm |
The mesoderm is the middle layer and is made up of cells that migrate between the endoderm and the ectoderm mesoderm contributes to shoes too many organs including the heart blood vessels muscles and Bone |
|
Mesenchyme |
Cells of the middle germ layer of the mesoderm |
|
Archenteron |
The invaginated cells become endoderm and form the Primitive gut |
|
Blastispore |
The mouth of the animal forms where the archenteron makes contact with the overlying ectoderm the opening created by the invagination of the vegetable is called the blastopore |
|
Dorsal lip |
Vinyl sales Mark the spot where the dorsal lip of the blastopore will form |
|
Involution |
As the bottle cells move inward the dorsal lip is created in the sheet of cells move over into the blasticoel this process is called involution |
|
Convergent extensions |
The arrangements are due to changes and sell properties called conversion extensions |
|
Epiboly |
Is gastrulation precedes so from the animals hemispheres flatten and move towards the site of involution is a process called epiboly |
|
Primary embryonic organizer or organizer |
Because the dorsal lip of the blastopore was apparently capable of including the host tissue to form the entire embryo spemann and Mangold dubbed the dorsal lip tissue the |
|
Goosecoid |
Studies of early crash truth is revealed that primary embryonic organizer activity is generated by the interaction of B canteen with signals coming from the vegetable cells together they activate the expression of the transcription Factor |
|
Hypoblast |
Between the blastodisc and the yolk mask is a fluid-filled space some cells from the blessed is break free and move into the space these cells come together to form a continuous layer called this |
|
Epiblast |
The overlying cells make up this |
|
Hensen's node |
And the chick embryo archenteron forms but the endoderm and mesoderm migrate forward to form the gut and other structures of the anterior and other primitive Groove is a thickening called this |
|
OregonoGenesis |
During the next phase of development called this many organs and organ systems develop simultaneously and in coordination with one another |
|
Neurulation |
Is the initiation of the nervous system |
|
Notochord |
The other groups of cells that influence over the dorsal lip become or measured are so named because it forms a rod of mesoderm the notochord that extends down the center of the embryo |
|
Neural tube |
The folds fuse forming a cylinder the neural tube in a continuous overlying layer of epidermal ectoderm |
|
Neural crest cells |
Cells from the most lateral portion of the neural plate do not become part of the neural tube but disassociate from it and come to lie between the neural tube and the overlying epidermis these neural crest cells migrate outward to let lead the development of the connections between the central nervous system brain and spinal cord and the rest of the body |
|
Somites |
As the neural tube forms measure dermal tissue gather along the size of the notochord to form separate segmented blocks of cells called so mites |
|
Hox genes |
In vertebrates the homeotic genes that control differentiation along the anterior posterior body axes |
|
Extraembryonic membranes |
Which originated formed the embryo but are not part of it extreme embryonic membranes function in Nutrition gas exchange and waste removal |
|
Yolk sac |
Is the first to form in it does so by extension of the hypoblast layer along with some adjacent mesoderm yolk Sac grows to include the entire body of the yolk in the egg |
|
Allantoic membrane |
Is also an outgrowth of the extraembryonic endoderm + adjacent mesoderm it forms the allantoic sac Site for storage and metabolic waste |
|
Amnion and outer chorion |
Two layers of cell extend all along the inside of the eggshell both over the embryo and below the exact where they meet they fuse forming two membranes the inner amnion and the outer chorion and amnion surrounds the embryo form in the amniotic cavity the amnion secretes fluid into the cavity providing a protective environment for the embryo the outer membrane the chorion forms of continuous membrane just under the eggshell elements water loss from the egg and also works with the enlarged talented membrane to exchange respiratory gases between the embryo in the outside world |
|
Amniotic fluid |
The rupturing of the amnion and chorion in the loss of the amount fluid is called water breaking by humans |
|
Fetus |
By the end of the first trimester most organs have started to form the embryo is about 8 centimeters long and weighs about 40 grams it would fit neatly into a teaspoon at about this point it's time the human embryo is medically and legally referred to as fetus |
