Talk:Historic Animation - Heart 02
Part 1 Summary
Introduction to early development
Heart layers - epicardium, myocardium, endocardium
Week 3 Heart Fields Epicardiomantle Mesenchymal cells Endocardium development from double to single tube Cephalic end connects with dorsal aortas Caudal end connects with vitelline veins
End Week 3 Single thin-walled tube Tube bengins to bend
Part 2 Summary
Scale Bar 1 mm
Sinus venosus - draining fluid and blood cells from 3 pairs of vessels (vitelline veins, umbilical veins, common cardinal veins) common cardinal veins = ducts of Cuvier
Heart tube - bends ventrally to the right
Primitive atria - above sinus venosus
Conus - above primitive atria
Truncus arteriosus - above conus
Aortic arches - above truncus arteriosus
Caudal to cranial sequence sinus venosus - primitive atria - conus - truncus arteriosus - aortic arches
Middle Week 3
Splanchnopleuric mesoderm - differentiated into epimyocardial mantle around the tubes
Two heart tubes - brought together by the folding of the body
Foregut - lies dorsal to the heart tubes
End Week 3
Spontaneous cardiac contractions
Detachment of the heart tube dorsally
Primordia of transverse sinus of the pericardium
