- Tracheo-esophageal septum - ridges of mesenchyme proliferate on both sides of the groove and form this partition, divides the foregut into a dorsal esophagus and a ventral portion, laryngo-tracheal tube and lung bud

- Stimulates respiratory centers in the medulla
-
Onset of Inspriation

- grows and forms a longitudinal mass running cranio-caudal direction
- pronephros
- mesonephros
- metanephros
- emphasizes the Theory of Recaptitation
-
Pronephros
- pronephris tubules - 7 to 8 pairs, from cranial (neck region) of nephronic ridge
- one end of each tubule turns caudally to meet the next on to form pronephric duct
- tubules - not functional and regress, duct persists and continues as mesonephris duct
-
Mesonephros
- develops in thoracic and lumbar regions of nephronic ridge
- size is correlated to type of placenta - larger size may be responsible for normal herniation of growing intestinal loop
- carnivores - smallest (endotheliochorial)
- pig - largest (epitheliochorial)
- sheep - intermediate
- Mesonephronic tubules - functional in embryonic life, then regress
- Bowman's capsule - one enlarged end of tubule forms double walled capsule
- Glomerulus - derived from branches of the dorsal aorta invaginated in the Bowman's capsule
- Mesonephric duct - other end of tubules joins the mesonephric duct (continuation of pronephric duct) provides and outlet for excretory product
-
Metanephros
- permanent and functional kidney from caudal nephrogenic ridge
- dual origin
- Ureteric bud - (metanephric diverticulum) caudal part of mesonephric duct, develops inot collecting system, grows in metanephric tissue and induces metanephris tissue to form the metanephric cap which develops into excretory system (nephron)

Indifferent Stage of Genital system
- genetic sex determined at fertilization
- difficult to determine sex of embryo morphologically
- genital (gonadal) ridge - develops on the ventro-medial aspect of mesonephros, lined by coelomic epithelium which overlies a condensed mesenchyme
- primordial germ cells (originate in yolk sac) - migrate to the genital ridge, induces the development of the genital ridge to form primitive sex cords in mesenchyme
-
Indifferent Stage - Duct System
- Lateral to genital ridge is persisting mesonephric (Wolffian) duct - develops into male duct system
- Paramesonephric (Mullerian) duct - develops dorsolateral to mesonephric duct, develops into female duct system
- both ducts are present in each embryo
-
Sex Determinartion
- XY : male Y - contains testis determining factor (TDF) genes
- Mullerian Inhibitory substance (MIS) produced by sertoli cells, causes regression of mullerian duct
- Testosterone - from Ledig cells, stimulates the development of Wolffian duct and causes the regression of mullerian duct
XX : female
-
Development of Testis
- testis(gonadal) cords - develop into seminiferous tubules (peripheral part) and rete testis (central part)
