In neurulation, what cell types are involved? What morphogens are present (and antagonists)? What transcription factors are there? What tissues/tissue types are there? What are the signaling pathways used and how do each function? What's the end goal, and what is the response in development? Draw a labeled diagram or detailed flow chart of neurulation in embryos to show this. (FYI, this is one practice question. No grading involved.)

There are 6 major events in fertilization. Discuss the process of fertilization or conception, with emphasis on the sperm-egg interaction. Proteins on the sperm plasma membrane bind to ZP3 molecules within the zona pellucida of the egg. Why is this event important? Zona binding triggers the acrosome reaction, in which the sperm plasma membrane fuses with the outer acrosomal membrane, causing exocytosis of acrosomal contents. What is in the "acrosomal content"? Acrosomal enzymes begin to dissolve a hole in the zona pellucida. This enzymatic degradation, accompanied by rapid sperm tail beating, moves the sperm through the zona. Where does the sperm intend to reach?
Which of the following is an illustration of permissive interaction? The epidermis signals the underlying dermis to create condensations and the dermal condensations then signal the epidermis to form specific cutaneous structures. Wing epidermal epithelium produces wing feather when exposed to wing dermal mesenchyme but will produce scales and claw when exposed to foot dermal mesenchyme. When implanted in the newt embryo, the frog oral ectoderm can only differentiate into frog derivatives and will not differentiate into newt derivatives. D An inducing signal from the optic vesicle is necessary for new gene expression in the lens ectoderm. E) Contact with the appropriate extracellular matrix is sufficient for cells to express differentiation-specific genes.
What critical developmental process/es are altered following retinoic acid-exposure, which may cause protrusion of the spinal cord through the vertebral arches? Select one or more: O A. Primary neurulation, where the neural plate creases inward until the edges come in contact and fuse. O B. Secondary neurulation, where the tube forms by hollowing out of the interior of a solid precursor. O C. Regulation of neural crest migration from the neural tube to generate segmental ganglia. O D. Abnormal somite formation affecting the development of muscles of the back.
1. The diagram in Figure 1 shows a section through the mammalian testis. With reference to this diagram answer the following questions: Hormone secreting cells A FIGURE 1 What percentage of each of the following types of cells would you expect to contain an X chromosome. Give a REASON for your answer in each case. i) type cell A ii) type cell B Name the cell type labelled B which under goes mitosis. State the importance of mitosis in a mature testis. State TWO ways in which cell division results in cell C being genetically different from one another. The graph in Figure 2 shows the effect of light on the period of oestrus in two groups of female sheep. The females in the control group were subjected to the normal seasonal variation in day length. Partially through the first year of the experiment, sheep in the experimental group were subjected to reversed day-length cycle. The period of oestrus of each group of sheep is shown in solid bands above the graph (Figure 2).
Choose all of the correct statements about the formation and role of somites during development. Somites are formed when the notochord signals adjacent mesoderm cells Somites are ectoderm cells, so they will form teeth, jaws, and skin Somites signal adjacent cells to form ossification centers, which eventually grow bone to form vertebrae and ribs O Somites will directly turn into the neural tube (spinal cord)
Figure 43.15 Which of the following statements about hormone regulation of the female reproductive cycle is false? LH and FSH are produced in the pituitary, and estradiol and progesterone are produced in the ovaries. Estradiol and progesterone secreted from the corpus luteum cause the endometrium to thicken. Both progesterone and estradiol are produced by the follicles. Secretion of GnRH by the hypothalamus is inhibited by low levels of estradiol but stimulated by high levels of estradiol.
Label the early development stages shown in the following diagram.
What means to retain the ability to become any cell type—including germ-line cells and gametes—when exposed to the appropriate signals in a developing embryo?
IN AN OUTLINE FORM, describe briefly the phases of neurulation. Mention some signaling molecules, genes, morphogenetic factors, and other factors, intrinsic/extrinsic factors responsible for each phase. NOTE: Make sure the answer is in OUTLINE FORM. SUBJECT: Developmental Biology.
Describe the process of Neurulation, formation of neural crest & placodes, and the derivatives and importance of those.
1. There are many pathways in fertilization that remain as gray areas. Choose one of these pathways and visually show where the "unknown" lies. Example: The Izumo-Juno/CD9 complex is responsible for sperm to bind with the egg prior to its penetration. The IP3 pathway is responsible for cytosolic Ca+2 to increase in concentration, promoting the polyspermy block and egg activation that precedes amphimixis. What signaling pathway is activated by the Izumo-Juno/CD9 complex formation that will in turn activate the IP3 pathway?
Which of the following is not true about neurulation? Choose all possible answers. a. Segregation of neural ectodermal rudiment from the epidermal ectoderm. b. In primary neurulation, the neural plate thickens along its midline into a solid cord of cells that is displaced internally and cavitates to form a hollow tube. c. In secondary neurulation, the neural plate folds along the anterior-posterior axis of the embryo, forming a tube that detaches from, and is displaced under, the epidermal ectoderm. d. Ectoderm forms the neural tube e. Mesoderm forms the reproductive organs f. Endoderm forms the gut g. All are true about neurulation
