what is day 4-6 in embryonic development (form and what is happening)
inner cell mass of blastocyst does what?
forms the embryonic body
out trophoblast layer of blastocyst does what?
forms the chorion and fetal part of placenta
implantation of embryonic development
blastocyst attaches to uterine wall
what is day 7 of embryonic development (form and what happens)
what are the three embryonic layers
amnion
yolk sac
forms embryo’s first blood cells and primordial germ cells here migrate to embryo body to form become germ cells in gonadal tissue
allantois
helps form umbilical cord
what is day 14 of embryonic development (form and what happens)
decidua capsularis
uterine mucosa enveloping embryo
decidua basalis
uterine wall beneath inner mass
what is the gastrula stage of the embryo
three primary germ layers present and begin to differentiate for the next six weeks
what are the three layers that form in the gastrula stage
endoderm
forms mucosa of digestive and respiratory system and their associated glands
ectoderm
forms skin and nervous system
mesoderm
forms skeleton, skeletal muscles, walls of digestive organs, urinary, and circulatory system, etc.
what happens in week 9 of embryonic development
all somatic cells contain
46 chromosomes (diploid 2n)
egg and sperm contain
23 chromosomes (haploid n)
how are the 46 chromosomes of the somatic cells obtained
the fusion of egg and sperm
gene
unit/area on DNA (sometimes RNA) that contains hereditary information
