Document Summary

50mc, 22qs on development to repair (module 22-25), rest on the other modules. 10 sa (50 marks, 2-10 marks per question) 3qs on development to repair (module 22- Can you remember midterm 4 questions: describe early development central nervous system from the end of gastrulation to the point of formation of the neural tube. Include a description of the role of the notochord, the classes of neuronal precursor cells and the structures that they will form, including a description of the generation and characteristics of the dorsal-ventral axis of the developing nervous system. It is unnecessary to include secondary neurulation, or specific signaling molecules in your answer. (module 22) The notochord defines the embryonic midline and eventually disappears. It sends signals that induce differentiation of ectodermal cells into neuroectodermal precursor cells which can go on to develop into every type of neuronal cell later in development. The neuroectoderm thickens to form a columnar organization being the neural plate.
