Term
|
Definition
tubules of the initial kidney |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
second tubules derived caudally from the nephric duct which are the sources of hematopoietic stem cells and eventually form the epididymis and vas deferens |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
becomes the final kidney and forms caudally from the mesonephros |
|
|
Term
metanephrogenic mesenchyme |
|
Definition
intermediate mesoderm which committed to forming the kidney and induces ureteric buds |
|
|
Term
ureteric buds (easy to misspell!) |
|
Definition
branches induced by the metanephrogenic mesenchyme from the Nephric duct which become the collecting ducts and ureters that transport urine to the bladder. They induce mesenchyme to condense and differentiate into the nephrons |

|
Definition
kidney disease caused by cysts within the kidney |
|
|
Term
somatic (parietal) mesoderm |
|
Definition
the dorsal layer of the lateral mesoderm closest to the ectoderm |
|
|
Term
splanchnic (visceral) mesoderm |
|
Definition
the ventral layer of the lateral mesoderm |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
derived from the 2nd heart field, the 2 chambers which receive blood from the body
|
|
|
Term
|
Definition
chamber of heart which expels blood to the body |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
splanchnic mesoderm becomes cardiomyocytes which forms the musculature of the heart |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
outer portion of heart, the sac, derived from mesoderm |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
cells which migrate to the lateral mesoderm which are the precursors to the heart |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
region of cardiogenic mesoderm which becomes the heart |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
after neurulation precursors (cardiogenic mesoderm) delaminate and undergo an epithelium to mesenchymal transition and reassemble into small tubes |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
the fusion of the 2 heart fields create this tube, becomes the ventricles |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
the turning of the heart tube to bring the atria to a dorsal anterior position to the ventricles |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
cells which make the valves |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
septum formation which divide chambers of heart. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
cardiac precursors do not migrate to midline and create inviable |
|
|
Term

Definition
precursors of blood and blood vessels, derived from cells from the primitive streak |

Definition
progenitors of blood cells |

|
Definition
the process of sprouting new branches of vessels that occurs throughout the life of the organism |
