What are dorsal root ganglia?   all sensory cell bodies in the body  
🗑
What are sensory ganglia of the cranial nerves?   V,VII, IX, and X. Descendants of neural crest cells  
🗑
What are the paravertebral ganglia?   cell bodies of sympathetic GVE neurons going to the heart lungs, sweat glands, arrector pi muscle or somatic capillary muscle sphincters. Derived from neural crest cells  
🗑
What are adrenal medulla cells?   also called chromafin cells. Release norepi and epi into the blood stream. Derived from neural crest cells  
🗑
What are post-synaptic parasympathetic neurons derived from?   neural crest cells  
🗑
What are the parasympathetic ganglia of the head?   III, VII, IX and X. Dervied from neural crest cells  
🗑
What are the 3 zones of the neural tube?   ventricular zone, intermediate zone and marginal zone  
🗑
What does the ventricular zone of the neural tube give rise to?   all neurons and microglia. Eventually becomes the ependymeal layer that lines the ventricles and central canal  
🗑
What does the intermediate zone differentiate into?   neuroblast cells  
🗑
What do the marginal zones of the neural tube contain?   white matter tracts where the actual meninges project to  
🗑
What does the mesenchyme surrounding the neural tube come?   pia, arachoid and dura mater  
🗑
What does the neural tube do as it thickens?   it differentiates into the alar and basal blate separated by the sulcus limitans  
🗑
What does the alar form?   posterior horn  
🗑
What is the posterior horn?   sensory region of the spinal cord  
🗑
What does basal plates form? The anterior horn    
🗑
How does the medulla develop?   same way as the spinal cord except it will open like a book on the anterior portion  
🗑
How far does the spinal cord descend thru the vertebral canal in an embryo?   runs the full length of the vertebral canal  
🗑
At 6 months gestation how far does the spinal cord ascend?   S1  
🗑
Where is the spinal cord in the vertebral canal in a newborn?   ~L3-L2 level  
🗑
Where is the spinal cord in the vertebral canal in an adult?   ~L1  
🗑
How is the neural groove formed?   the ectodermal layer of the lrilaminar embryo folds in on itself  
🗑
What are the 3 distinct regions of the grainstem and brain in the fetus?   prosencephalon, mesencephalon and rhombencephalon  
🗑
What does the prosencephalon differentiate into?   diencephalon and telencephalon  
🗑
What is the 5 distinct regions that differentiate from the forebrain, midbrain and hindbrain?   Telencephalon, diencephalon, mesencephalon, metencephalon and myencephalon  
🗑
What does the Rhombencephalon turn into? The metencephalon and myelencephalon    
🗑
What is the pontine flexture? Final bend between the metencephalon and myelencephalon that helps form the brain    
🗑
What does the metencephalon turn into?   pons and cerebellum  
🗑
What does the myelencephalon turn into?   the medulla  
🗑
What does the telencephalon turn into?   the cerebral hemispheres and the lateral ventricles  
🗑
What does the diencephalon make up?   thalamus and third ventricle  
🗑
What does the mesencephalon make up?   midbrain and aqueduct  
🗑
What does the metencephalon make up?   pons, cerebellum and fourth ventricle  
🗑
What does the myelencephalon make up?   medulla and fourth ventricle  
🗑
What does a narrowing of the aqueduct cause?   backup of fluid into the lateral and third ventricle (hydrocephalus  
🗑
What separates the lateral ventricles?   spetum pellucidum  
🗑
What is the flow of CSF?   lateral ventricles -> third ventricle -> cerebral aqueduct -> fourth ventricle -> subarachnoid space  
🗑
What is holoprosencephaly?   failure of the cerebral hemispheres and lateral ventricles to separate. The left and right lateral ventricles are not separated  
🗑
How does the cerebral cortex develop?   grows much larger than the rest and takes on a “c-shaped” appearance as it enlarges  
🗑
Why is there an enlargement of the cerebral cortex?   proliferation of nerve cells to form mature neurons of the brain form the inside -> out  
🗑
What happens as the telencephalon grows larger?   gets wrinkly and forms distinct sulci, and gyri on the surface as well as the frontal, temporal, insular and occipital lobes  
🗑
How does the olfactory tract form?   develops as an extension of the frontal lobe.  
🗑
Where do the olfactory neurons extend to?   olfactory epithelium of the nasal cavity  
🗑
How do the eyes form?   retina is directly connected to the diencephalon and then induces the formation of the lens from epidermal tissue. Retina is actually a part of the CNS  
🗑
What are the 4 types of spina bifida?   occulta, meningocele, meningomyelocele and myeloschisis
