-
animal pole
pigment rich, little yolk. polar bodies are given off.
-
vegetal pole
lacking pigment, yolk rich
-
polar bodies
small cells containing only DNA that soon dissapears
-
grey cresent
structure formed on opposite side of sperm entry, will form notochordal mesoderm
-
ectoderm
blue, epidermis and nervous system
-
mesoderm
red, cardiac/skeletal/smooth muscle, kidney, red blood cells
-
endoderm
yellow, digestive track respiration, urinary, auditory, thyroid
-
blastocoel
fluid filled region of blastula, early blastulation
-
blastopore
structure from invagination
-
dorsal lip
gastrulation movements, surface cells move inward. 2/3 down from animal pole and opposite side of sperm entry.
-
ventral lip
additional mesoderm and endoderm precursor cells pass over
-
archentron
interior cavity when blastocoel collapses, becomes the gut/luman
-
yolk plug
yellow, formed during dorsal lip of blastopore exposed at vegetal surface
-
neural tube
green, precursor to brain and spinal cord, neural groove deepens as neural folds meet too tube
-
notochord
green, forms in neural tube and is spinal tube
-
neurulation
change from neural plate to neural tube
-
somites
bilateral blocks of mesoderm that forms along neural tube and form skeletal muscle, cartilage, tendons, dermis
-
neural plate
opposite primitive streak, ectodermal tissue thickens and flattens
-
neural fold
forms at end of neural plate when forcing them together to form tube
-
remnant of blastocoel
blastocoel collapsing during late gastrulation and neuralation
-
neuropore
forms brain, anterior portion of neural tube
-
eye vesicle
out growing of brain through ectoderm
-
pronephrons
first of sequence of kidneys in the mesoderm
-
tail bud
where tail will form
-
blastula stage
follows cleavage and precedes gastrulation
-
cleavage
state after fertilization in which the egg divides by mitosis and forms in blastula stage
-
gastrulation
follow cleavage, cells rearrange and endoderm and mesoderm cells move inward and ectoderm spreads along outside.
-
invagination
folding inward of a sheet of cells
-
involution
type of gastrulation in which sheets of cells move inward and spread over inner surfaces
