Study Notes
Pharyngeal Arch Development
- Pharyngeal arches grow on either side of the future head and neck of the developing embryo.
Pharyngeal Arch Structure
- Each pharyngeal arch has an outer covering of ectoderm.
Pharyngeal Arch Fusion
- The 4th and 6th pharyngeal arches ultimately fuse together to form the larynx.
Pharyngeal Pouches and Membranes
- The pharyngeal groove is separated from the internal pharyngeal pouches by thin pharyngeal membranes.
Pharyngeal Arch Core
- Mesoderm tissue forms the core of each pharyngeal arch.
