Fertilization Barriers to fertilization Consequences of sperm penetration Significance of fertilization Sex determination Sex-linked inheritance Types of inheritance Study questions Critical thinking 8. The embryonic period Cleavage (cell proliferation) The human egg Comparative embryology Patterns of cleavage Holoblastic and equal cleavage Meroblastic cleavage Blastomeres Compaction Blastocyst (initiation of cell differentiation) Two-layered embryonic disc Gastrulation and the three-layered embryonic disc Neurulation Neural tube Neural crest Embryonic induction The changing mesoderm Somitic, intermediate, and lateral mesoderm Cardiogenic mesoderm From layers to tubes: The fourth week Becoming a recognizable human: Weeks 5–8 Cell movements Artificial embryos Study questions Critical thinking 9. The fetal period Developmental changes Sex determination Growth Subdivisions of the fetal period Early fetal stage or “the fetus goes to sleep” (9–18 weeks) Middle fetal stage or “an awkward stage” (19–28 weeks) Late fetal stage or “the swan emerges” (29 weeks to birth) Organoids Study questions Critical thinking 10. The placenta and the umbilical cord Implantation Placenta Decidua and chorion Genomic imprinting Placental function Placental problems The umbilical cord Structure Umbilical circulation Childbirth Umbilical cord blood Why save umbilical cord blood?
