  2. Face and neck development of the human embryo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_and_neck_development...

    The face and neck development of the human embryo refers to the development of the structures from the third to eighth week that give rise to the future head and neck.They consist of three layers, the ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm, which form the mesenchyme (derived form the lateral plate mesoderm and paraxial mesoderm), neural crest and neural placodes (from the ectoderm).

  3. Human embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_embryonic_development

    This cell potency means that some cells can be removed from the preimplantation embryo and the remaining cells will compensate for their absence. This has allowed the development of a technique known as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, whereby a small number of cells from the preimplantation embryo created by IVF, can be removed by biopsy and ...

    Outline of human anatomy; Cell types. by origin; This is a list of cells in humans derived from the three embryonic germ layers – ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm.

  5. Pharyngeal pouch (embryology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharyngeal_pouch_(embryology)

    The third pouch possesses dorsal and ventral wings. Derivatives of the dorsal wings include the inferior parathyroid glands, while the ventral wings fuse to form the cytoreticular cells of the thymus. The main nerve supply to the derivatives of this pouch is cranial nerve IX, glossopharyngeal nerve.

  6. Ectoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ectoderm

    Once convergent extension and radial intercalation are underway, the rest of the vegetal pole, which will become endoderm cells, is completely engulfed by the prospective ectoderm, as these top cells undergo epiboly, where the ectoderm cells divide in a way to form one layer. This creates a uniform embryo composed of the three germ layers in ...

  7. Cervical sinus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cervical_sinus

    The cervical sinus is a structure formed during embryonic development.It is a deep depression found on each side of the neck.It is formed as the second pharyngeal arch (hyoid arch) grows faster than the other pharyngeal arches, so they become covered.

  8. Embryomics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryomics

    The cells of the inner cell mass (embryoblast), which are known as human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), will further differentiate to form four structures: the amnion, the yolk sac, the allantois, and the embryo itself. Human embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, that is, they can differentiate into any of the cell types present in the adult ...

  9. Ontogeny - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontogeny

    Cleavage is the process of cell division, so the starting zygote becomes a collection of identical cells which is a morula and contains cells called blastomeres. [15] Cleavage prepares the zygote to become an embryo, which is from 2 weeks to 8 weeks after conception (fertilization) in humans. [16] Process of zygote to gastrula in development
