Spine Embryology
Across
- 5. The ventral horn motor neurons develop here and extend axons out of the spinal cord to innervate developing skeletal muscle
- 8. The progenitor cells that make up the precursors to neural tissues in the neural plate are called ___________ cells
- 10. mater relating to an eight legged creature
- 11. An intersecting network of nerves
- 12. Embryonic layer that forms muscle and bone
Down
- 1. Improper closure of the neuropores can result in this neural tube defect
- 2. tough mother
- 3. Embryonic layer that will form the cells lining the digestive and respiratory tracts
- 4. A cartilaginous skeletal rod supporting the body in all embryonic and some adult chordate animals
- 6. The sensory dorsal horn develops there and receives axons from the sensory structures outside the spinal cord
- 7. Represents the area of skin that is mainly supplied by a single spinal nerve
- 9. Embryonic layer that eventually forms the skin and neural tissues
