Neuroscience

4. Chemical process by which pioneer axons are directed towards their target location.
12. First step of neural development. Radial cells give rise to the neurons of the cortex.
13. First layer that forms during cell migration.
15. Cells that differentiate into neuronal and glial cells to eventually from all the glial and neuronal cells within the CNS.
16. The preliminary nervous system of an embryo that eventually becomes the central nervous system.
17. Layer of cells that becomes Layer I of the cerebral cortex after cell migration.
18. The outermost tissue layer of an embryo in early development that becomes the neural plate.
19. End of a neurite that guides the axon or dendrite into the correct target location
20. Stage of embryonic development in which the neural plate folds in on itself to form the neural tube.

1. Cell division that results in two identical daughter radial glial cells
2. The buildup of CSF in the ventricles of the brain. Causes increased intracranial pressure and can be fatal
3. Cell division that results in one radial glial cell and one neural precursor cell.
5. Layers develop in an inside-out pattern, consists of Layer I, Layer II, Layer III, Layer IV, Layer V and Layer VI.
6. The part of the ectoderm that folds into the neural plate during cell development.
7. Neural progenitors that that give rise to all the neurons within the cortex,
8. Projections coming from the cell body of a neuron, can include axons or dendrites.
9. The step of neural development that follows proliferation. Cells move towards their final location.
10. Region that is lateral to the neural plate and which detaches from the neural plate when it becomes the neural tube. Eventually becomes all the cells of the PNS.
11. Bulge-like features that form on the neural tube shortly after the tube closes. Three primary are called forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain.
14. the theory that the growth gone of a neurite is guided to its target
