Term
What is the difference between fraternal and identical twins
Definition
fraternal is when two eggs get fertlizaed (with separate placenta) WHILE indetical twins is when the embroy splits in to in the same placenta
Term
what is unique about the mitosis for emryology
Definition
the newer cells get smaller than the orginial cells but keeping the same nucleus size FOR GAS AND NUTRITION EXCHANGE
Term
indeterminate cleavage
Definition
after the initial cell division of the resulting daughter cells is not determined each has the potential to develop into an entire organism.(i-twins)
Term
determinate cleavage
Definition
Term
differientation for embryology
Definition
when cell specialize
Term
how much time does is allowed for the egg to be ferlized after ovlation
Definition
12-24 hours after ovulation
Term
does the cell division increase or decrease overtime
Definition
increases doubling speed per division
Term
what are the steps of cell division for embryo
Definition
a solid ball of cells: morula then blastulation occurs when a fluid cavity enters the cell and forms a hallow blastula THEN a grastula is formed via gastrulation (formation of endoderms, ectoderms, mesoderm)
Term
ectoderm
Definition
epidemis, eyes, hair, nervous system (OUTSIDE PART OF CURVE)
Term
endoderm
Definition
digestive, respitory tracts (INNER CURVE OF GASTRULA)
Term
mesoderm
Definition
muscoskeletal system, circulatory, excretory, gonads, connective tissue, some respitory and digestive (IN BETWEEN ENDO AND ECTO)
Term
what animals lays eggs that are fertilized externally in the water
Definition
amphibians and fish
Term
what animals have yolk in eggs
Definition
reptiles, birds, and monotremes
Term
Chorion of egg
Definition
outer membrane within shell, used for gas exchange
Term
allantois of egg
Definition
sac within yolk used for respiration and excretion of wastes
Term
amnion of egg
Definition
fluid protection in the egg
Term
yolk sac of egg
Definition
encloses the embryo for nutrition
Term
what are special about marsiupial embryology
Definition
develop outside placenta which makes them very young when born due to limited transfer of ___s
Term
role of placenta
Definition
to transfer nutrition, gas, and waste exchange
Term
role of umbilical cord
Definition
transfer of nutritious and oxgenated to embryo
Term
how exactly does labor occur
Definition
1cervix thins and dilates 2amniotic sac raptures 3uterine contractions 4cutting of umbilical chord and placenta
