| What e. tissue forms the epithelial lining of the digestive tract? | endoderm |

| the stroma (connective tissue) of the glands is derived from what e. tissue? | Splanchnic mesoderm |
| Muscle, CT, and peritoneal components of the gut wall are also derived from what e. tissue? | Splanchnic mesoderm |
| Specifies the esophagus and stomach? | SOX2 |
| Specifies the duodenum? | PDX1 |
| Specifies the remaining small intestine | CDXC |
| Specifies the large intestine and rectum | CDXA |
| The endoderm-mesoderm interaction is initiated by what gene? This gene is expressed where? | Sonic Hedgehog; expression throughout the gut tube. |
| What does Sonic Hedgehog do? | Upregulates factors in the mesoderm that then determine the type of structure that forms, such as the stomach, duodenum, etc. |
| Cells of the SOMATIC MESODERM that line the intraembryonic cavity become? | Mesothelium |
| mesothelium forms the __________layer of the serous membranes that line the outside of the peritoneal, pleural, and pericardial cavities | Parietal layer |
| What e. tissue forms the visceral layer of the serous membranes covering the abdominal organs,, lungs, and heart. | Splanchnic mesoderm |
| What are mesenteries?> | Double layers of peritoneum that provide a pathway for blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatics to the organs. |
| What are organs suspended by mesenteries referred to as? | Intraperitoneal |
| organs that lie against the posterior body wall and are covered by peritoneum on their anterior surface are called what? | Retroperitoneal |
| What are peritoneal ligaments? | Double layers of peritoneum that pass from one organ to another or,from an organ to the body wall. |
| When does the respiratory diverticulum (lung bud) appear at the border with the pharyngeal gut? | 4 weeks |
| when the foregut divides into a ventral portion, the respiratory primordium, and a dorsal portion, called the? | ESOPHAGUS |
| What is the muscular coat of the esophagus derived from? | Splanchnic mesoderm |
| The upper 2/3 of the esophagus contains both skeletal and smooth muscle and is innervated by? | Vagus nerve |
| The lower 1/3 contains only smooth muscle and is innervated by the? | Splanchnic plexus |
| The stomach appears as a fusiform dilation of the foregut in the ____week of development | 4th week. |
| How does the stomach rotate in development, and what does this cause? | 90 degrees around a longitudinal axis, the left side to face anteriorly and the right side to face posteriorly. |
| The original side of the stomach grows faster, to become the? | Greater curvature. |
| The anterior side of the stomach becomes the? | Lesser curvature |
| What structures form the duodenum? | the terminal part of the foregut and the cephalic part of the midgut |
| During the ________ (time period) the lumen of the duodenum is obliterated by the proliferation of cells in its walls. What happens shortly after to the lumen? | 2nd month, it recanalizes |
| Where does the duodenum receive its blood supply from? | the celiac trunk (from foregut)and the superior mesenteric artery (from midgut) |
| The liver primordium appears in the middle of the third week, as an ________________________- of the distal end of the foregut | outgrowth of the endodermal epithelium The outgrowth is called the HEPATIC DIVERTICULUM, or LIVER BUD |
| What does the liver bud consist of? | Rapidly proliferating cells that penetrate the septum transversum. |
| What is the septum transversum? | a mesodermal plate that is found between the pericardial cavity and the yolk sac. |
| The septum transversum also helps form part of the...? | Diaphragm |
| The ventral outgrowth of the bile duct becomes? | the gallbladder and the cystic duct. |
| Epithelial liver cords mingle with vitelline veins and umbilical veins, forming the ? | Hepatic sinusoids. |
| What do the liver cords differentiate into? | liver parenchyma, lining of the bile duct |
