1

In the embryo, what structure does the falciform ligament contain?

Please select an option Incorrect. The mesonephric duct drains the embryological form of the kidney, the mesonephros. In the male it develops into the Wolffian duct which develops into the epididymis, vas deferens and seminal vesicles. In females the mesonephric duct regresses. The falciform ligament in the adult, which carries the round ligament of the liver in its free border, is the remnant of ventral mesogastrium that conveyed the umbilical vein from the umbilicus to the liver in the foetus. WikiVet Article: liver. Incorrect. The common bile duct enters the duodenum at the major duodenal papillae (with the pancreatic duct) on the dorsal surface of the duodenum. The falciform ligament in the adult, which carries the round ligament of the liver in its free border, is the remnant of ventral mesogastrium that conveyed the umbilical vein from the umbilicus to the liver in the foetus. WikiVet Article: liver. Correct!. The falciform ligament in the adult, which carries the round ligament of the liver in its free border, is the remnant of ventral mesogastrium that conveyed the umbilical vein from the umbilicus to the liver in the foetus. WikiVet Article: Falciform ligament Incorrect. The ductus venosus links the umbilical vein to the caudal vena cava. The falciform ligament in the adult, which carries the round ligament of the liver in its free border, is the remnant of ventral mesogastrium that conveyed the umbilical vein from the umbilicus to the liver in the foetus. WikiVet Article: liver. Incorrect. The yolk sac is an extraembryonic membrane which outpockets from the foetal midgut.

In the adult, what structure does the septum transversum form?

Please select an option Incorrect. The septum transversum, or caudal wall of the pericardial cavity, is formed of unsplit mesoderm. This structure, which is conspicuous in early embryos, extends from the ventral body wall and is the beginning of the diaphragm; however, it gives rise only to its ventral portion. There are also muscular contributions to the diaphragm from other sources. WikiVet Article: liver. Incorrect. The septum transversum, or caudal wall of the pericardial cavity, is formed of unsplit mesoderm. This structure, which is conspicuous in early embryos, extends from the ventral body wall and is the beginning of the diaphragm; however, it gives rise only to its ventral portion.

What is the temporal sequence of events in the formation of a mature mammalian kidney?

Please select an option Incorrect. Before mesonephros there is pronephros. WikiVet Article: kidney development. Incorrect. Between pronephros and metanephros is mesonephros. WikiVet Article: kidney development. Correct! The kidney develops in the order of pronephros, mesonephros and then metanephros. WikiVet Article: kidney development. Incorrect. The correct order is pronephros, mesonephros and metanephros. WikiVet Article: kidney development. Incorrect. After mesonephros there is metanephros. WikiVet Article: kidney development.

What determines gonadal differentiation in to a male?

Please select an option Incorrect. Presence of Mullerian ducts does not influence gonadal differentiation, they are primative structures present in the early embryo which will develop further or regress later in development. The correct answer is gonadal differentiation is determined by the presence of the SRY gene of the Y chromosome (sex determining region of the Y chromosome) which encodes “testicular determining factor” protein (TDF). Lack of SRY gene (i.e. XX females) leads to ovarian differentiation. WikiVet Article: genital development Incorrect. Mullerian inhibitory substance is produced by the testes and induces development of the mesonephric (Wolffian) duct system in to epididymis and vas deferens and causes regression of paramesonephric (Mullerian) duct. The correct answer is gonadal differentiation is determined by the presence of the SRY gene of the Y chromosome (sex determining region of the Y chromosome) which encodes “testicular determining factor” protein (TDF). Lack of SRY gene (i.e. XX females) leads to ovarian differentiation. WikiVet Article: genital development Incorrect. Lack of the SRY gene (i.e. in XX females) leads to ovarian differentiation. The correct answer is gonadal differentiation is determined by the presence of the SRY gene of the Y chromosome (sex determining region of the Y chromosome) which encodes “testicular determining factor” protein (TDF). WikiVet Article: genital development Correct!

WikiVet Article: gastrulation. Correct! The heart and tissue around the gut are derived from splanchnic mesoderm. WikiVet Article: gastrulation. Incorect. The pharynx, lungs, liver and lining of the gut are derived from endoderm. The heart and tissue around the gut are derived from splanchnic mesoderm. WikiVet Article: gastrulation. Incorrect. Parts of the reproductive system and the kidneys are derived from intermediate mesoderm. The heart and tissue around the gut are derived from splanchnic mesoderm. WikiVet Article: gastrulation.

Please select an option Incorrect. The left fourth aortic arch contributes to the arch of the aorta. The right fourth aortic arch forms the proximal segment of the right subclavian artery. The third arches form the internal carotid arteries. WikiVet Article: aortic arches. Incorrect. The second arches degenerate completely. The third arches form the internal carotid arteries. WikiVet Article: aortic arches. Incorrect. The proximal segment of the right sixth aortic arch forms part of the right pulmonary artery while the distal segment atrophies.

In the foetus, the ductus venosus shunts blood between which two structures?

Please select an option Correct! The ductus venosus bypasses the liver by linking the umbilical vein to the caudal vena cava. The flow of blood is controlled by a sphincter, enabling the proportion travelling to the heart via the liver to be altered. WikiVet Article: foetal circulation. Incorrect. The ductus arteriosus connects the pulmonary artery to the aorta and allows equivalent ventricular function in the foetus. The ductus venosus bypasses the liver by linking the umbilical vein to the caudal vena cava. The flow of blood is controlled by a sphincter, enabling the proportion travelling to the heart via the liver to be altered. WikiVet Article: foetal circulation. Incorrect. There is no physiological shunt between the right and left ventricle in the foetus. The ductus venosus bypasses the liver by linking the umbilical vein to the caudal vena cava. The flow of blood is controlled by a sphincter, enabling the proportion travelling to the heart via the liver to be altered. WikiVet Article: foetal circulation. Incorrect. The foramen ovale is an opening between the two atria enabling blood to be channelled from the right to left atrium thereby bypassing the lungs. The ductus venosus bypasses the liver by linking the umbilical vein to the caudal vena cava. The flow of blood is controlled by a sphincter, enabling the proportion travelling to the heart via the liver to be altered.WikiVet Article: foetal circulation. Incorrect. There is no physiological shunt between the umbilical vein and the portal vein in the foetus. The ductus venosus bypasses the liver by linking the umbilical vein to the caudal vena cava.
