||Differentiation of the initially indifferent gonad is required before internal tract and then external tract development. Both the latter require gonad development and will be abnormal without this first step. Mesonephric duct is present beside the early genital ridge, but does not induce its differentiation. Paramesonephric duct forms after gonad determnation.

{The allantois, cloaca, hindgut and yolk sac are all lined with endoderm
|type="()"}
+ true
- false
|| During week 3 gastrulation generates the endoderm layer that forms an epithelial layer that with embryonic disc folding will line of all the above structures.


{Which of the following statements about the blastocyst is most correct
 
{The cells in the adult male and female gonad forming from equivalent primordial cells in each sex are:
|type="()"}
|type="()"}
- the blastocyst forms from the 2 blastomere stage
- Sertoli cells and thecal cells
- the blastocyst has a cavity lined with endoderm
- Leydig cells and interstitial cells
- the blastocyst stage occurs after hatching from the zona pellucida
- primordial germ cells and oocytes
+ the blastocyst has an embryoblast and trophoectoderm layer
+ thecal cells and interstitial cells
 
+ thecal cells and interstitial cells
||The blastocyst has an [[E#embryoblast|embryoblast]], also called an inner cell mass, and a [[T#trophoectoderm|trophoectoderm]] or trophoblast  layer. The 2 blastomere stage develops into the morula and at the formation of the blastocoel is then the blastocyst. The cavity lined by endoderm is the yolk sac and occurs after the blastocyst stage. The blastocyst stage occurs both before and after after hatching from the zona pellucida.

Line 87: Line 93:
|| The notochord has a mechanical role in how the embryonic disc folds and releases a signal (sonic hedgehog) that patterns surrounding tissues. The nucleus pulposis does form from the notochord (much later in embryonic development) but the notochord does not separate the cloacal and buccopharyngeal membranes or form the intervertebral disc (from sclerotome of somite). Gastrulation and neuralation, you were asleep in the practical class or checking your facebook status.

{Ectoderm refers only to the neural plate region of the trilaminar embryo
|type="()"}
- true
+ false
|| The entire layer of the trilaminar embryo is the '''ectoderm''' (meaning outer layer), the neural plate is only the central portion of this layer. Ectoderm forms the central [[N#neural plate|neural plate]] and the lateral parts form the [[E#epidermis|epidermis]].

Revision as of 15:35, 2 June 2011

Here are a few simple questions that relate to your BGD practical, this page is not a part of today's Practical class. You should try in your own time after completing the Practical today.Take the quiz and see what you know, if you get some wrong, try working through through the 2010 BGD Practical - Fertilization to Implantation.

Take the Quiz

   Syntax error

1 Sex determination occurs initially through the SRY transcription factor acting on:

primordial germ cells
anterior pituitary
testes support cells
ovary support cells
mesonephric duct cells

2 The adult spermatogenic epithelium is stimulated by follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)

true
false

3 The lower end of the mesonephric duct branches to form the:

ureteric bud
uterus bud
urethral bud
gonadal bud
none of the above

4 The sequential development of the genital system can best be described as:

internal and external genital tract dependent upon primordial germ cells
gonadal differentiation determining internal then external tract development
mesonephric duct forming genital ridge then internal and external tract development
internal tract determining gonadal then external tract development
paramesonephric duct forming genital ridge then internal and external tract development

5 The allantois, cloaca, hindgut and yolk sac are all lined with endoderm

true
false

6 The cells in the adult male and female gonad forming from equivalent primordial cells in each sex are:

Sertoli cells and thecal cells
Leydig cells and interstitial cells
primordial germ cells and oocytes
thecal cells and interstitial cells
thecal cells and interstitial cells

7 Select the correct options below for the process of implantation

is driven by the trophoblast layer
occurs following adplantation
can occur inside and outside the uterine body
allows endocrine support of the corpus luteum

8 The extraembryonic coelom refers too

amniotic cavity, yolk sac and chorionic cavity
pericardial cavity, pleural cavity and peritoneal cavity
blastocoel, somitocoel and lateral plate coelom
maternal lacunae, uterine gland lumen, uterine body cavity

9 Which of the following statements is incorrect about the process of gastrulation

gives rise to the trilaminar embryo
involves cell migration from the epiblast layer
extends from the primitive node to the buccopharyngeal membrane
occurs at the region known as the primitive streak
generates endoderm and then mesoderm layers

10 What are the two main early embryonic developmental roles of the notochord

mechanical role in embryonic disc folding and signaling for tissue patterning
formation of the nucleus pulposis and separating cloacal and buccopharyngeal membranes
gastrulation and neuralation
formation of the nucleus pulposis and intervertebral disc
