Embryology Day 22-26

Front 1

Back 1

Sagittal (Day 22)
Folding during 4th week changes orientations
3 Folds: Head, Tail, and Lateral
Septum transversum, heart and oropharyngeal membrane are anterior
Connecting stalk, allantois and cloacal membrane are posterior

Front 2

Back 2

Lateral Folding (Day 24)
Intra and Etra embryonic coelom communicate
Body becomes tubular
Midgut from yolk sac becomes part of embryo

Front 3

Back 3

Head and Tail (Day 26)
Heart becomes caudal to mouth, dorsal to intraembryonic coelom
Septum transversum becomes caudal to heart
Forgut from yolk sac becomes part of embryo
Connecting stalk moves ventral
Allantois moves ventral/cranial
Hindgut from yolk sac becomes part of embryo
