what does the urinary system mostly form from?
|
intermediate mesoderm
|
|
what parts of the urinary system develop from endoderm rather than intermediate mesoderm?
|
most of bladder, urethra
|
|
how many pairs of kidneys intially form and in what order?
|
from cranially to caudally: pronephros, mesonephros, metanephros.
|
|
what does the pronephros consist of?
|
rudimentary kidney tubules and blood vessels: nephrotomes.
|
|
what do nephrotomes contribute to?
|
the mesonephric duct
|
|
what form the bowman's capsule?
|
mesonephric tubules
|
|
what does the mesonephric duct empty into?
|
cloaca
|
|
where does the metanephros form?
|
pelvic region
|
|
what does the metanephros do?
|
forms tubules similar to the mesonephric tubules.
|
|
how does the ureter grow?
|
ureteric bud grows out of the mesonephric duct to meet the metanephric blastema
|
|
how does the ureteric bud form the renal pelvis, calices, and collecting ducts?
|
branching morphogenesis.
|
|
what forms the nephrons?
|
metanephric blastema
|
|
how does the kidney position change in development?
|
kidneys shift more cranially in the abdomen.
|
|
what are pelvic kidneys?
|
kidneys that have failed to ascend
|
|
what does the urorectal septum do?
|
it divides the cloaca into the urogenital sinus and the anorectal canal
|
|
what are the 3 parts of the urogenital sinus?
|
bladder, pelvic part, and phallic part
|
|
what happens to the ureters after they bud from the mesonephric ducts?
|
they eventually assume their own entrances to the bladder. the mesonephric duct begins to be absorbed into wall of urogenital sinus
|
|
what happens to the mesonephric duct in males and females?
|
females- it degenerates.
males- forms the vas deferens |
|
what does a persistent allantois result in?
|
urachal fistula
|
|
what is a urachal sinus?
|
bladder defect
|
|
what are local areas of allantois persistence?
|
urachal cysts
|
|
does the kidney vascular supply change as they ascend?
|
yes
|
