1st _______ weeks important for cranio-facial development

eight

Normal gestationDuration: ___ +/- 2 weeks = full term____ days from first day of last menstrualperiod (LMP) or_____ days from ovulation.

40; 280 days; 266 days

Which trimesters are these?


_______ trimester: growth in weight, preparation for birth


_______ trimester: from single cell to baby-looking


________ trimester: growth in length, organogenesis



third; first; second

How long are each trimesters (in weeks)?

First trimester (~0-14 wks): from singlecell to baby-looking




Second trimester (~15-27 wks): growth inlength, organogenesis




Third trimester (~28 wks to term): growthin weight, preparation for birth

Which trimester is the most critical period for normal development?

The first trimester




NOTE: 30% of conceptions end in spontaneous abortions

Why is the first trimester is the mostcritical period for normal development? (3)

1) chromosomal abnormalities


2) abnormal sperm/ oocyte


3) improper implantation




ALSO; women know they're pregnant ~2 months, so they may drink and smoke week (everyday)

T/F: During the first trimester, theembryo (1st 8 weeks) and fetus (8-14 weeks) are most sensitive to teratogens,including: alcohol, drugs (prescription andrecreational), cigarette smoke, elevated body temperature(hot tubs, maternal fever).

True!

T/F: Paternal age is not linked with schizophrenia.

False; father's age is linked due to increase rate of random mutations

What's Down Syndrome? How does it occur?

DS= trisomy of chromosome 21




It occurs due to non-disjunction during meiosis




NOTE- non-disjunction is when apair of chromosomes doesn’t split off, resulting in an unequal # of chromosomes(gametes are supposed to be haploid)

1) _______: sperm + oocyte = embryo


2) _______: via cell division/cleavage, from singlecell to multicellular hollow ball.


3) _______:separating the embryonic region from the extraembryonic components (e.g.placenta) and making intimate contact with maternal tissue.


4) _______: formation of the 3 germ layers -- endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm via cellmigrations.


5) _______: formation of the brain and spinal cord fromthe ectoderm.Week4: Gut tube formation:from the endoderm, via cranial/caudal and bilateral body folding. 6) _______: Mesoderm development:migration to form muscle, skeleton, dermis, urogenital tract, circulatorysystem, blood and heart.

Time Zero


1) Fertilization


2) Blastocyst Formation


3) Embryonic Dis and Implantation


4) Gastrulation


5) Neurulation


6) Gut Tube Formation


7) Mesoderm Development


Week 4




Each step (Except Fertilization) takes 1 week

Blastocyst Formation: What is it? What week?

Week 1; cell division/ cleavagne, from single cell to multicellular hollow ball

Fertilization: What is it? What week? Where does it occur?

Time Zero; sperm+ oocyte= embryo




Occurs: the ampullary portion of the fallopian tube

During what trimester stage can embryonic stem cells be deliberately differentiated?

Blastocyst Stage (when embryo hatches)

T/F: Cleavage is cell division accompanied by cell growth

False; it is not

Cleavage is the first next important step after fertilization. When and at what rate does it occur?

• First cleavage occurs at ~24 hr postfertilization, producing the first 2 blastomeres.


• Subsequent cell divisions every 12 hrsproduce the ~30 blastomeres of the morula.

The blastocyst forms from the______ via a process of compaction and is fluid filled.Then the blastocyst separates into2 sets of cells: ______ and _______.

morula;




trophoblast and inner cell mass

________: becomes the embryo proper and some extraembryonic tissues derives from the small collection of internal blastocyst cells




________: givesrise to the placenta, but not the embryo. derivesfrom the outer cells which become flat and make tight junctions



•Inner cell mass


•Trophoblast



Hatching of the Blastocyst:




The blastocyst emerges from the __________ 5days after fertilization.




At this time, the inner cell mass is abilaminar disc, comprising the _____ and _______.

zona pellucida


epiblast and hypoblast



T/F: Hatching is required for implantation of the blastocyst in the endometrial wall in week 2.

True!

How many days after fertilization does implantation occur?

4-6 days after fertilization, theblastocyst reaches the uterus, which is primed for implantation.

Embryonic Disc and Implantation: What is is and what week does it occur?

Week 2




separatingthe embryonic region from the extra-embryonic components (e.g. placenta) andmaking intimate contact with maternal tissue.

Describe the how the bilayered disc forms

Theinner cell mass becomes bilayered,comprising the outer epiblast layer and the inner hypoblast layer, surroundedby the trophoblast epithelium




NOTE: innercell mass= 2 layer structure

Bilayered Disc Formation:


•The______ and _______ produce extraembryonic tissues, while the ______ gives rise mostly to the embryo proper.

Trophoblast and Hypoblast




epiblast

The dorsal _________ is the normal zone for implantation.




Theembryo first attaches to, then invades the ___________, with the epiblastalways oriented first toward the uterine wall.




_________ cells (from the trophoblast) secrete proteolytic enzymes, allowing the_________ to enter the endometrial wall

Endometrium




Endometrium




Syncytiotrophoblast; blastocyst





Theinner cell mass which has formed into the bilaminar embryo (______ and _______) and the large fluid-filled space(_________).

epiblast and hypoblast;




blastocoel

What three things happens during implantation?

1) syncytiotrophoblasts generate lacunae (w/in endometrium) which fuses w/ other maternal capillaries (joins maternal/ embryonic cirulation)




2) The amniotic cavity forms around epiblast cells




3) Definitive yolk sac forms the hypoblast

Is the hypoblast considered the extraembryonic mesoderm?

yes

What does the primitive yolk sac (aka embryonic umbilical vesicle) forms?

the umbilical trunk

90% of Ectopic Pregnancies are ________, and danger isfrom rupture and subsequent hemorrhage

tubal
