Study Notes
Mesoderm Germ Layer Derivatives
- Paraxial Mesoderm: Forms along the midline and differentiates into segmented structures called somites.
- Intermediate Mesoderm: Connects paraxial and lateral plate mesoderm, forming the urogenital structures.
- Lateral Plate Mesoderm: Divides into two layers:
- Somatic Mesoderm: Forms dermis of the body wall, limb bones, and connective tissue.
- Splanchnic Mesoderm: Forms the gut tube wall and serous membranes surrounding organs.
Somite Differentiation
- Sclerotome: Migrates around the neural tube to form the vertebral column and ribs.
- Dermatome: Forms the dermis of the skin.
- Myotome: Forms striated muscles, including body wall and limb muscles.
Endoderm Germ Layer Derivatives
- Gastrointestinal Tract: Formed from the endoderm, which covers the ventral surface of the embryo and forms the roof of the yolk sac.
- Foregut: Develops into the pharynx, esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.
- Midgut: Develops into the small intestine, cecum, and appendix.
- Hindgut: Develops into the large intestine, rectum, and anal canal.
