What two types of bone is the skull formed from
Endochondral bones and dermal (membrane) bone
Endochondral bones
-cartilaginous precursors
Turn into cartilage and then bone
Dermal (membrane) bone
Bones which ossify directly from mesenchyme
What is mesenchyme
Loosely organised embryonic connective tissue derived from either mesoderm or neural crest cells in the head
What are the 3 developmental parts that form the skull
Chodocranium
Splanchonocranium
Dermatocranium
What kind of bone is the Chodocranium made from
Endochondral
Cartilaginous precursors
What kind of bone is the splanchnocranium made from
Endochondral
Cartilaginous precursors
What kind of bone is the Dermatocranium made from
Dermal bones
Ossifys directly
What does the chondocranium develop from
Chondocranium- ethmoid
Derived from prechordal cartilage and olfactory capsule
Chondocranium- body of sphenoid (basisphenoid)
From hypophyseal cartilage
Chondocranium - lesser wings of sphenoid (orbitosphenoid)
From optic capsule
Chondrocranium- basioccipital
Derived from parachordal cartilage
chondocranium- petrous and mastoid parts of temporal bone (petromastoid bone)
Derived from optic capsule. Houses inner and middle ear
Dermatocranium
Splanchocranium
What did pharyngeal arches evolve from

Ectoderm
What kind of core do pharyngeal arches have
Mesenchymal core
What are pharyngeal arches lined with on the inside
Endoderm
What kind of muscle are the pharyngeal arches
Striated muscle (from head mesoderm) innervated by arch specific cranial nerve
Pharyngeal clefts and membranes
First arch
